I have rewritten this several times - in an attempt to........ show my appreciation...........whilst ignoring your advice.

Why? - I really don't want some massive CNC machine sat in my workshop, like some huge unmoveable beast.

I have invested a lot of time and money over the years, but i don't want this one bit of kit to take over my whole life and workshop expenditure for the next twelve to eighteen months.

I wanted to add another dimension to my woodworking projects - this damn thing looks like it will take over my life!!

Whilst my good lady wife is understanding, the 'workshop money abyss' is already running on very fine tolerances!

So gents, I am going to make all the mistakes you have mentioned and i apologise for this in advance!

I will regrettably have to change channels, to the land of the poor to mediocre machines to help get this built.

However, with the advice that i have taken already, i will end up with a twin linear ballscrew CNC machine, that will look like a 'superstar' compared to the majority of offerings.

If it turns out to be crap, i will have no problems selling it and will probably make good money on it.

Then, ditch the whole project and go back to the medieval process of hand routing!

Take care gents and thank you
