    The ball screw on my machine is behind an L shaped gantry and it works fine. I fitted a plate to the front, it's all bolted and glued and I think it's stiff enough to cut aluminium okay. There are other designs on the forum more suited to metal, silyavski for example has a nice design; http://www.mycncuk.com/threads/6457-...9577#post59577

    I don't know if you saw this, if you are doing calculations, it's a pity more people didn't contribute;
