Is that 8020 extrusion? If so, then this looks very easy to build.

Whats the bar thickness on that.??
Looks about 16mm on all axis
Not a bad machine...

Maaan , I get fooled by this all the time.
Nothing is easy to build, hehe. It is all the same, I start working on something and there comes one problem and while I think of a solution I need to have the tools to help me with going for the solution, and then I cannot find the right tools or they are out of my reach/pocket/time line.

I dont wish things to be easy, I hope to have enough strenght to go all the way through.

I do not speak a single word of German, but i think this (from the ebay page) is very understandable:

"Die Linearführungen bestehen aus ( Z+Y Achse ) 16 mm Stahlwellen"

hope it helps

You'll get no argument from me. :-) I always seem to underestimate the difficulty of building anything, primarily because I tend to change the details.

Regardless, assuming that this is 8020 extrusion, this is a super simple construct. The linear bearings for the X and Z axes are a stock item from 8020, too.

The Y seems to use bushings...also a cheap and adequate solution. Motor mounts look modular, too, which means this machine can be tricked out, if you want.

I dont wish things to be easy, I hope to have enough strenght to go all the way through.

Well, purposely making something hard is ultimately self-defeating.

This router is actually a pretty nice construct...remember that complicated is easy, but simple takes genius. Whoever designed this one, was good!

Right were does it come from?
Who are they and what do they sell?
And do they have an outlet in the UK who make/distribute it?

In an ideal world i am looking at this type of bed
