Hi Clive thanks for your responce. In terms of design I have dfx files for a mechmate but am reluctant to go down that path I want to build something simlar using welded steel box section

I only really want to cut mdf and ply sheets if the machine is capable I may make a few bits for my rc car out of alloy but thats not important as I dont need to if I cant

As for tolerance id like repeatability withing 0.5mm and accuracy of the same over a meter span. Its not overly imporant over the distance of the table

do you think im beong unrealistic?
