Can a linear slide be rigid enough? | |
Hi, was going to look into constructing a cnc mill. I have a complete bridgeport j head spindle assembly with bearings. My question is do you guys think a large linear slide would be rigid enough for the x and y table. Seems to me it would shake it to death if you were taking anything larger than say
.050 at a time (1018 or 1045, not aluminum). Would love to hear some input on this. Don't want to use a Chinese compund slide. Don't think it would be precise enough. Thanks |
