myOX : a 4' x 2' OX CNC with potential
This is the story of me building myOX - my version of the "ideal" OX.

Building a Core XY printer with a fixed build plate from off the shelf parts.
Openbuilds 4x8 cnc
I built this cnc using 2 z axis actuators thinking it would minimize deflection and it seems to be very sturdy.
