Hi Andy.
Nice machine. I see what you mean about the over kill for the plasma, thats a big gantry.
I would like to change the design of the gantry so I can use supported round rail because it is a lot cheaper than the Hiwin Rails, but not sure how I will mount these.......
You could also look at Ali box and tap it or use a tapped steel plate on the inside to bolt the rails to.
I was thinking about using rack and pinion for the x axis but I am all ears to any other suggestions
