I have to buy MDF now then. From what I understand a normal size sheet is 2440x1220 right? I found that I can with 1/3 of that size. I was not able to got it down to a 1/4 sheet so I'm going to get a lot of left overs. If this was for manufacturing I would have to redesign, but I'm only making one so the material waste is acceptable. I've already got the ball bearings and most of the tools I need so I hope to start building by the end of next week. I just have to find where to get that aluminum profile, the closest store I know that has it for sure is about 100km away so..
I've attached a drawing of of the main cuts, hoping the store can do that as I don't have a table saw. I'm not sure how much the blade steals, but I've made the drawing adaptable, so when I know that I can automatically update the drawing. It's been set to 1mm atm, but I haven't included the absolute measures yet anyway. The small peaces I'll cut myself.
