Hi,
starts to look good.
Some notes:
- what precision you aim for the cut? Ice will cut, but i see it vibrating if you intend to cut aluminum. It can be made much more rigid if you add some vertical profiles on the gantry, no problem if they are 60x60 and offset from the back gantry plain outwards like 5mm as i remember, so the motor will pass and fit inside the gantry.
-My suggestion is if you like, to have a look at my new gantry design , there are some cheap improvements over your design especially of the side plates. using profile, can cheapen the build and lessen the time.
-the table looks like a tank, so good enough for me
-you must calculate at the end the exact weight of the gantry, cause you can accidentally go in servo territory
and or need to drive all with some reduction, which will affect the speed, which will affect the motor choice and drives, etc...
