80/20 garage sale machine?

[groomden]

anyone out there build a machine from parts available at 80/20's website or ebay garage sale? I'm looking for pictures and ideas. Just got plans in the mail today for the Solsylva router and i like the overall design, i'm just thinking that it might be a bit more efficient to use some of the 80/20 stuff in it from the get-go?

thanks for any help/pics/pointers!

I built mine from 80/20 stuff that I scrounged from the local scrap yard.
Used my other CNC machine to fabricate various mounting plates etc..

Here are some pics of my machine.
It will do ~36" X 26" x 6", I use a rotozip tool and gecko drivers on a homemade power supply. Mach2 is my control software and I use Corel Draw, autocad for design work and sheetcam for the cam software....

I've built many routers from 8020. My latest work will be a x4 mini mill out of 3060.

Bought my stuff from Tim before there was a 80/20 garage.
Check out my System1 and System2 in the members Photos sections. System2 is mounted on a workbench and more stable than System1 was. Used a lot of non-metalic parts (plastics).
