Hi Ian,

Thanks for the Reply.

I like the design that JAZZCNC is working on, a picture here: http://www.mycncuk.com/forums/showth...d-General-Help

Would this be a more solid design with the high sides? Any tips for designing a Strong machine for working on Aluminium?

The USBCNC looks interesting, have you had any issues with it? I was looking at GeckoDrives, what you think of them?

Going back to the Drawing board for now.
