big budget cnc

You could do with modifying the rack mounting arrangement on the the high X axis, it's going to get clogged with debris if you have it as shown.

Also make the point where the gantry supports join the rails wider and get the spindle centre central to the bed-rail bearing blocks.

I'd consider buying this and importing it I think it'd cost ~€1200 to Germany but it might be too big for you. I know someone who would moves this no probs if you'd be interested have to get a quote.

Needs work but seems a cheap way to get a decent 8*4 router

Metal frame, really wants to be steel at that size but if you do use T slot aluminium you need chunky profile and I would have it predrilled so it bolts together rather than T nuts. I'm certain you can make it fold to the wall for extra space (Although not the machine I linked to lol) It will cost a lot more to make it from aluminium rather than steel, I lack the confidence to weld a steel frame for a cnc so i would use a coach builders to make my frame.

Or maybe it's time for your mum to take up motorcycle riding ;)
