Hi Everyone, my name is Mike from Lincoln here in the UK and at long last I have joined this forum. Having looked around several forums over the 5-6 months this forum has some very honest and to the point members. I have found the information on here very useful and it's helped me with the design.

I am building my own design of machine with a cutting area of X 55cm Y 75cm Z 18cm for the base frame I've used timber and will use MDF for the cutting bed, having served my time as a chippy many years ago more than I wish to remember now, but being a lover of making things the base was no problem for me.

I hope I can learn from some of the mistakes that I have made in the past and learn not to make them again. I always welcome others advice but don't always use it.

Looking forwards to hearing from you all.

Mike :)
