So more or less finished massive thanks to Dean for all his help and the Forum for all the information – pictures of anything being great – when your studying the detail.
Some changes to the original design being the 50 x 50 x 200mm ball screw housings because of the
problem of getting at screws on the original RM2020 Housings.
Just drilled and fixed the mdf bed down and surfaced it – its a learning curve, you have to move at
fast speeds and feeds to prevent burning (1500mm/min and 24000 rpm)
Guard for the end belt and cover for the Z axis to fitted, plus a dust shoe to be made or purchased.
Extraction system to be fitted and probably a vacuum plate.
Now to get to grips with Mach3 and do some CAD drawings.
I have a queue of neighbours and friends wanting house signs – I'd rather eat worms than do them, but SHMBO will make me.
