Thanks for the welcome.

I beleive it is the 'Book machine' because it is pretty silmilar to the 1 built in his book.

Thanks for pointing out that wobble/flex. I do not need mega accuracy in what I'm planning to use it for, but if it is an issue I can alway find a way to rectify it.

Tom, just finished reading your build log thread for the second time, looks like a nice machine:tup:. Figured the big buy items would be the electronics and motor (and possibly the software, as I know nothing about Linux based systems). Thinking about just using threaded rod initally as mega accuracy and speed are not a big factors.

When I work out exactly what and now I'm going to build, I'll start a build log.

Thanks

Matt
