Hi,

thanks for the pointers, I was hoping to cut aluminum with this frame. The guy who sold it to me said it is capable of doing aluminum but I am starting to wonder if this is incorrect information from what you have said (this is my first foray into CNC'ing).The frame was about the same cost as the one from CNCDUdez (I found that after buying this frame and he shows milling aluminum with his frame). I have all the motors etc ready for mounting.

I will go for the MDF bed route and see how I get on - if it is a complete waste of money then I may just opt for one of CNCDudez frames instead as he has shown some vids of that cutting alu.

Cheers

ice.
