Some other pictures taken today:

- BEFORE:
- AFTER cleaning with denatured alcohol
It is still a crude build, but it is starting to make parts. Everything is coming more quickly now, that have taken first steps with G-code and CNC.
Got a smile on my face, when made mounting plate for motor. Keyd in coordinates, make mounting holes 47.14mm apart, as it says in technical data sheet. Guess what? The motor is a perfect fit for the plateCNC is amazing.
