    Right well I have finally moved back to the uk, I thought it was best to wait until I was back so I could have a bit of time to re asses, think and deside what I had room for and also take a look at the steel that I was given. It is 100x100 x5mm wall so a little heavier than what people have said so hope that is ok and I have nearly 20m in total so should be plenty there although was thinking of making the legs of something a little lighter weigh?

    I have decided on a work area that will allow a max 1220 x 600 to be cut but with the focus on aluminium and forget full sheets for the moment.

    I don't really want to do the hole epoxy level thing so will need to figure the best place to build the adjustment in to the axis's

    If it is easier and up for the job I will use aluminium extrushion for the gantry.

    So back to the drawing board and to start planing how to do the frame.
