Streuth! Only 25 days to go!

As mentioned elsewhere, trying to get precise measurements for items I don't yet have in my hands has been frustrating! The details are slowly filling themselves in... Instead of building to "My ideal" of 650 x 650, I'll build it around ready made sizes all the other bits will be off the shelf standard stuff too.

I'll put pulleys into it at some point, after getting it working, dust extraction system, acoustic cabinet and other items are ahead in that list.

In searching out info I came across a guy who had reported favourably about using the rubber underneath idea,although he used anti vibration feet http://www.5bears.com/cnc01.htm , near the bottom of the page. Nice build story too.

Rummaging in a draw, I found an old combined 16 key and mouse controller called an N52te which might get do the job as a pendant...
