where to start?

[JAZZCNC]

This is my first attempt using google sketch up and I'm pretty chuffed with the outcome :tup:

If you could let me know if it looks ok or if its overkill with all the inner sections?
Cheers

Good job that man.!
Drawing accurate plans helps so much with layout and finding any un seen or unpredicted problems.

No it's not overkill at all just enough IMO. . . Thou I would have all the inner pieces running the same way, same number 3 per bay all running parallel to each other.
This will reduce the gap between them slightly which helps when plunging.! . . .you'll be surprised how much the bed dips when plunging so the less the gaps the more ridged it will be.

Would also put some corner braces in to help with keeping it square. I know it's a bed and squareness hisn't so important because your working on it rather than to it's squareness, If ya know what I mean.!! . . .but working with everything square just helps things fit together that bit easier.! Esp when you have moved it and need to put it back together.

Keep them coming.

Edit: RE Welding. When your welding the frame don't run long beads of weld and alternate between ends. The goal is to reduce heat build up in one area so move around.
