This gives me a great start for building an automated panel saw thanks for sharing

No problem. Basically I used the V-slot to make a shelf attached to the wall using the Openbuilds Masterlink hardware for joints. It is 1500mm long, 500mm deep, 500mm tall w/ 3 diagonal braces to hold the top level. The router frame is attached to the front of the shelf using a heavy duty piano hinge. The thing is rock solid. I still need to make the legs for the front to rest on, currently it is using a sawhorse that happened to be the exact height to the floor. The shelf top MDF piece also acts as a rigidity device and a handy place to put the power supply and other stuff. The only thing I have to remember is to move the gantry all the way to the back before lifting it up.

Do ya think the y and z axis will come out of alignment when flipping the machine? Its hard to tell from the pic if it is a machine that folds up or if its a slightly vertical in operation.
