wow thanks for the help and the offer of the future help, I will definitely take you up on it
I will always find a use for the mini mill lol its been a god send for me the past year.
I have been looking at others builds and want the best I can afford, and have no time scale on completion I have seen the digital nema23 2.2 with 556 drivers kit on cnc4u I thought would be adiquate what are your thoughts ?
I am thinking rectangle box steel welded for the Base with a fixed centered gantry, the y and z would be on gantry while x would be on the bed
2x hiwin rails on all axis with the obvious ballscrew on all 3

vague description I know but once I get an idea what everyone thinks is a good solid idea I will design it out properly
This is one project I can't afford to mess up so it will be done properly with the help and input from the people I the know

Thanks again

Jason

No we can do much better than that for same or less money. The problem with these kits is they are always compromised in some way with miss matched components.
In this case 36V PSU when those motors will easily run much higher voltage and give better performance.

For the same Money we should be able to have 80V AM882 Digital drives running custom 68V PSU using 3Nm motors. This setup I use all the time on routers that cut everything from paper to Ali with ease. It will also give you upgrade potential if ever need a bigger machine.

The Planned design sounds spot on so get the crayons out and lets see your idea on paper.!
