To be honest thou if you use this type design then it's mainly a wood machine and won't do aluminium to the best standards.

Nice design! I won't be doing lots of aluminium to any particular high standard but I would like the capability. Out of interest, did you machine those aluminium parts yourself or have them done externally? (manual/cnc?).

Yep my design made by me for someone else.!

Edit: Here's some more pics i've posted before of various bits of different machines built on the same design.
I've built 2 versions one that had the motors on out side like Pic 1 & 2 and also version were the motors are all turned inboard or under bed like in pics 5 & 6 to fit in confined space like the corner of a shed.
I also have version that use's twin screws on long X axis with shorter stubby sides if just doing thin materials and bit more capable at handling Ali with decent results and feed rates.
