thanks for the reply its 75% stripped the 4th picture shows the current state . So already past the point of no return . i either have the basis of a custom machine . or a load of parts for sale.
There was initially a problem with the m400 control .
im comfortable if i only keep the hiwin rails and bearings x carriage bt40 spindle and table and screws to be honest .

So if i proceed i need to build a frame to build off as a starting point so i wondered what the best plan of attack was for that as a starter
do's and dont's

thanks
