Hi, bringing the x and z screw to one side is always a good idea. There is little leverage like that and that is always preferable. Question is:...
Hi, nice effort. One suggestion though: as you are using 2 plates on the side anyway: why not extend the shorter, and build up a complete box...
Hi, each to his own. It is apparent that you have put quite an effort into designing to your needs from the base up. Still the z-colum (and...
HI, why on earth you want to save weight on your spindle mount? CNC is all about rigidity, especially if you want to cut 3d jobs. Rigidity...

Hi, you could always update - use two plates to strenghten along y - now long but still slim parts could now be milled once turned acording to y....
Hi, i simply doubt that this setup will work. your z supports are braced forward and aft but non to the sides. Just compare to a cardhouse to get...
Sorry i misjudged the pics then. 13 mm seems ok. But still in relation... as mentioned before, first one upgrades the x-beam, now the side plates...
