I just score that today for 80 euros, it is 540x600x20 mm,I am planning to cut it and make the z axis plate out of it.I will use my bandsaw and then my router to make the templates out of plywood and after that I will use the same tools to cut this Ali,as Joe Harris has already done very successfully I must say!!!.
