Many thanks for the reply! You knowledge is much appreciated. Im still ways to go with this but I'm sure i will have many more questions along the way. Im going to aim for a granite build, its costly i know, i have quotes from suppliers but i believe it would be something i could use well for future. I like going to war with an A Bomb so to speak. I want the option of cutting Ali without any issue but most likely hard plastics and acrylics. Before i begin any build i need to secure a more permanent home for a 1000kg+ granite CNC. The 2000 x 1000 x 150mm surface plate is 950kg..
