Hello! Another new guy wishing to pick brains and ask for opinions...

Hi seashaw,

Firstly welcome to the forum, there are some very knowledgeable guys who I'm sure will be along in a bit to offer you some advice.

I've got a TB6560 board as I started off doing my build as cheaply (look through my build thread to see how it's changed...they all mostly do!) as I could. It's now sitting gathering dust as I'm not going to use it as I realised that it would severely limit any machine I wanted to build. You can only run them at 24V (otherwise the chips blow) and as voltage means speed they're going to be slow...

If you tell us what your budget is and what size cutting area you want then the help will be more forthcoming, if you've any initial sketches then that would be even better!!

Thank you for all the replys!.
I will start a build log tonight, i have a few drawings that i have done in sketch up as well as pictures i have taken.
