Hi Team,

This is my first post and my first crack at wanting information on how to build one of these babies.

I currently make my molds from vulcanised discs but they dont last long enough. So upon doing some research I have come here for my next step up the rung in this field.

I am wanting to build a 5 axis stepper cnc mill to make injection molds.

I need to know the tech required to build one as I don't think any commercially ready unit will fill me needs.

I have parts suppliers here in australia for everything but I dont know exact parts that will handle either aluminium or steel milling.

I am pretty cluey when it comes to this stuff and building it but the groundwork is baffling me as to what I need.

Please anyone respond. If you have any designs for a custom build unit I would be very thankful for your input on designs.
