Cool...can't wait to see that go together!
That is some nice machining, you are off to a good start.
Ya this machine should be awesome, just waiting for the linear rails and bearing and ballscrews.

I had to post the gantry uprights again, it's hard to get a sense on the size. These machines will be amazing.

Just gearing up for assembly. These profile with the linear rail guides built right in will make assembling go alot smoother.

Hey Mike,
Your build looks good so far. I'm putting together the same kit as well, although I'm still waiting on my linear bearings so I'm a little further behind. I'll be watching with interest as there's no instruction manuals here and I can already foresee a few challenges on the horizon. Have you thought about how you're going to mount your energy chains?
Hey Andrew22, ya I will be putting something together for instructions. It doesn't help us out Right now but it will with future builds. As for the cable chains I'll fab something up, I'll post here
