Hi OMLCNC

I am full blown Yorkshire Man and let me tell you that proposed Rule one is the quickest way to waste Money and time. No way to build CNC on the cheap that will be any use. Certainly not one that will work to the standard and produce what your looking to do.

Rule #2 is spot on regards knocking up design but we won't laugh at it. We will of course pull it apart and probably take the piss out of ya at any chance given but we'll never laugh at design.

So OM Crack on get drawing and then we can set you on the road to great machine. But start saving or getting used to idea it can't be done on the cheap.
