My baby 15" x 15" machine

[D.C.]

i cant see how 3mm flat bar can replace a 50x25mm piece of box section, the bed bending is the one thing i'd imagine u dont want.

Fair enough, if you do end up with a load of flat bar left over it is quite easy to weld two pieces together into a single piece of angle.

never thought about that, but if you look back at the previous page, dean has kindly gone over my design and reduced it down and says that it should leave me with 3 meters now out of a full length and all i have to use is 50mm x 5mm instead. which outs the cost at £90 on the dot so i'm more than happy.. and it looks a damn sight better than mine lol
