L Style Gantry on a 6040 sized machine?

That source is a bust.
They will only sell 6m lengths. They will cut it but you still have to buy the whole length!
$2530 ex gst plus shipping.......Splitters!


back to plan; 'next'

That is insane.

Whats to stop you getting a mate in the UK to buy and ship out to you?

1m of 90x45 is £25 + VAT = £30

Shipping of 5kg 1m x 10cm x 5cm box to generic "aussie location" major port = £38

That price applies up until 185cm - anything more they don't like, but thats a decent gantry span. Posting directly to Australind or Packenham is £39, 1-3 day service apparently.

Lets double the cost to account for me being an idiot and not accounting for import duties... Say £135 per metre door to door.

Thats way better than your quote of £1400 for 6m ~ £233/m not including shipping.

I'd say his aussie flag in his profile lol

My aluminium in the machine weighs 60kg's+ but I found a few extrusion suppliers in Oz and also could ship from China cheaper than UK.
