    Thanks for the offer but for me at least part of the challenge and fun is designing the machine and certainly for me as the design process in fusion is a great way to get used to learning the program.

    I have just had conformation the steel I have at home is 100 x 100 x 4 or 5mm so there more than enough there to build what ever I want if needed but would prefer to probably stick with alli still for the most part if possible to speed the build up as getting it done in a timely manner is just as valuable as any cost saving for me as time is quite valuable.

    although saying that the thought of being able to build a machine from free materials does have a slight draw to it what ever build I go for.

    have there bee any other solutions to being able to pass a full sheet through a machine that I have not thought about that would allow the high quality ali cut.

    not wanting to have to go up to the expense of servo and crazy electronics is the size then the limiting factor for good aluminium cuts?
