Progress has been a bit slow. Tonight I have assembled the X and Y axis. Hopefully this weekend I will have the motors wired up. Then onto the table and Z drive.
I am quite happy with how my frame has worked out. The motor and bearings look quite neat IMHO.
Here is the front idler for the Y axis. These photos make everything look like they are on a weird angle...but they aren't. I ended up machining them out of Aluminium on the Mechmate rather than buying 1/2" HDPE. I have a plastic chopping board that i will make the other brackets from that only need to be 1/4" thick.
Hopefully i'll have some more progress to show by the end of the weekend....
Oh, and this week i ordered my laser tube and optics
