Think you might have overestimated the weight.. Will weight it in the morning for you..

Yep, I got that completely wrong! For some reason I used the density for steel, not aluminium. That makes it 22.5kg, which is much more reasonable. Using www.parcels2go.com the cheapest for that mass is £10.67 including vat (City Link standard). I take it you are prepared to post it?

I'll have a think and get back to you soon. Ideally I would want 2000x950mm for my machine, but I'll go for less to save money. I just need to check how well it will fit. If you can find what grade it is that would be nice, but not critical. As long as it's not impossible to machine I'm happy...

Thank you,
Jonathan

Just had a thought. I've got a transformer that will output 40V, so rectified that's about 55v (including the diode forward voltage). I could add the components to make a power supply for your steppers and maybe we could do a deal? The transformer is plenty big enough, would be sufficient for about 5 of your steppers I think ... will work out properly how many in a bit.
