Looking like you're powering forward with the parts. She'll be cutting in no time ��
1605 &1604 ballscrews might be problematic though.
You're going to have to gear them to spin very quickly to get any reasonable feeds for cutting mdf/wood.
You may experience problems with whip:
On the 1605 1400mm the calculated critical speed is about 1000rpm which equates to 5m /minute.
On the 1604 1000mm the calculated critical speed is about 2000rpm which equates to 8m /minute.
You may be happy with those feeds or may able to exceed the critical speeds, but just wanted to highlight it.
