    CNC Router Table Size limits

    Hi,
    Have been reading thru all the posts and am realy impressed. I am interested in making panels for stitch and glue kayaks. The kayak is 16 feet long. From the wealth of expereince on this site would a table this long be feasible? Width would only need to cater for 2 feet. Any help appreciated.

    As long as your building skills are up to it. Rack and pinion drive would probable be the preferred method due to the length.
