    Centre of gravity

    Hello everybody,

    It is my first post, so at the beginning I'd like say hello for everybody .
    I'm working on cnc machine (my first) for milling a steal. All construction is made of steal profile 8mm. My question is if centre of gravity of my machine is correct.

    There is no rigid rule as to where the COG should be. Generally - the lower the better. You can always fill the base with sand - some professional machine tool makers do that. However, it will not help if the column is not rigid.
