5'x10' cnc wood working machine

[haku]

My buddy and I would like to build a cnc machine that is capable of handling a 5'x10' x 0.75" material. We would like a metal frame unit. What plans would be best for us to follow. I will need some help picking out steppers etc for it also.

Any help would be appreciated

Thanks

Have a look at the mechmate, the plans are free, and there is plenty of support on the mechmate forums.

If you are unable to find a good set of plans, theres always the option to design it yourself. Thats what I did, took a good look around the forums here for a few weeks and looked into all the different designs and then I just drew up some plans that incorporated the best parts of all of them. Just keep it sturdy! Good luck!

Like already posted, I think www.mechmate.com is a great machine, for wood.

I'm not much help here with new ideas, as has been stated you would be hard pressed to beat the Mechmate.
