First initiation of design, things have changed, see discussion and further down.
Parts List is now based on this community improved design (Base design with all OpenBuilts Parts without custom built parts you can make yourself once built and up and running)
Moag's CNC Mill
Build in 'CNC ROUTER BUILDS' published by Moag, May 16, 2016.
A design in progress, to 3D carve two-part Aluminium injection moulds for Soft Plastic Lures and Lead Jigs, so I can prototype some of the concepts rattling around in my head. All Openbuilds parts where possible, 1000x500mm footprint, 0.8kw Water-cooled Spindle?, High Torque Stepper?,Smoothieboard?, I still have no idea. As a newbie to the CNC world, any wisdom would be welcome to take this from just a idea into reality so I can start playing with all this awesome stuff. Thanks in advance
