Aluminum profile and alu plate 1500mm x 600mm x 150mm working area, first cnc.

[Lee Roberts]

For the plates 40, 50, 51 supporting the carriage would it be better to have 20mm not ground or 15mm ground ?


Do you have any comments before I start the build ?
Many thanks..

15 Ground, if you can't machine the mating surfaces.

Orange plate not needed, punch down from plate 51 to the nut (see pic example).



Or, if you really want to create a box, punch down from plate 51 to plate XX but make orange plate an X shape, locate nut in the center of the X (less material than current orange plate).
