Hi All,

I've just spent many days interwebbing this CNC Router thingy... left right and centre... x, y, and z... but think I've finally found most things in one knowledgeable spot.... this forum!

Normally I work as a contractor in mainframe IT, but have been without a contract for the past while, and in absence of a warm blooded mature lady, building a CNC Router will be the thing I obsess about in order to keep me sane-ish.

Currently I don't have access to my workshop which is at my SIL's downunder in Melbourne Oz, but as I am at the beginning of the learning curve and feel that this needs to be researched to the umpteenth degree, that may well be a good thing.

Hope I don't bug you folk with too many silly questions.

My current thinking is to build a CNC Router using MDF and Aluminium but realise it's still very early days.

I'm thinking that simply seeing the results of a home build in the flesh so to speak would be a great start. Is there anyone in my neck of the woods who would be so kind as to help with this?

Cheers,
Andy
