    It's not looking good, the change to new design doubled EG by volume. I'm gonna have to look into doing some FEA to know where I can shave off some material.

    Question

    Are there any handbooks that talk about forces acting on a machine during machining that I can use as a guide?

    What do you all think about this setup? Moving the bed to the side(for easier side milling)? I'm not sure if this is a machining center or a grinding or whatever though. By the way that's not a workpiece but the fixture block. Can I mount a workpiece to a vacuum table sideways?





    So who's slapping their forehead?

    Are these regular fixture clamps you'd use to hold the workpiece or some special types?

    After much consideration I've decided to no longer build a cnc, any cnc for that matter.

    The reason is the large discrepancy between what I want(EUR20k) and what I'm willing to pay(EUR10k).

    You can go ahead and close this thread. I better find myself a cheaper hobby.
    Thanks
