Good progress Nick!
You dont have to worry about the weight.. will be fine!
How do you plan on fastening the bearings?
Will you use the T slots or drill and tap the angle that you made?

Hi Robert.
I am planning to drill and tap ,the aluminum angle is 5.5 mm thick and made from hard aluminium,if that option fail I am going to use the T nuts.
I wish a Happy New Year for you and your family!

We expect some visitors in about one hour but I manage to paint the CNC bench today black and the sides where the Y axis extrusions are going to rest... yellow.

I am ready to pull the trigger and order 4x Nema 23 4NM from cnc4you.co.uk , any preferences for a breakout board from there and maybe for drivers?
Or what ever I can order all in once so I wont pay the shipping cost twice, thanks!

Personally I did not like their electronics. Nothing seemed like a bargain :)
Have you thought about motion controllers or/and BOBs?
Was thinking of getting pulleys from there but when I ordered they didnt have htd pulleys. Dont know if they have them now?

Breakout board is in the list, pulleys is a good idea, I just check and see that they have some!
Thanks!
