You'll struggle to find plans that are any good.!! . . But you don't need any.? You have everything you need right here on the forum it just takes a little research and reading.
Start by looking at other build threads to get an idea of the machine you would like to build. Then start a build thread. Put pen to paper and offer your design idea for others to check over.
Ask any questions your unsure about, no matter how stupid they may feel someone will have asked before so don't worry about asking. Or do a search and find the answer given to others.!
Don't be in a rush or buy anything until your sure it's correct for the machine.
Be honest with your self regards your own skills and abilty's. No point starting if you haven't got the tools or know how to use them.
Don't waste time building with inferior materials like MDF etc as it's fasle economy and mostly leads to poor machine that will frustrate the hell out of you.
Also don't try building with cheap linear components like Skate bearings and threaded rod etc.! Again just frustrates and often leads to failure and premature hair loss.!
For a proper Machine there is really no substitue for correct materials or components. Unfortunatly these do initially cost more but you'll save money in the long run because you won't have to rebuild the machine after you realise you dropped a bollock buying crap.!!. . . Plus it will be built and working correctly much sooner.
