I am fascinated by horizontals. After building a fixed gantry machine for aluminium. I am thinking of building a new machine.
Can/has a horizontal been built Diy?
Minimum requirements for the rotary part of the pallet are there direct drive options available off the shelf?
Is it really the best idea having the majority of the machine mass in the base and not where the spindle is connected? i guess once you go big enough this is less of a problem.
