achiestdragon is on a distinguished road
ok , well i seem to be getting on ok with a design using unistrut

about half way though the controls
and waiting for some draw slides so i can finish the x axis

should be fully operational in a week (if all parts ordered turn up by then )
although i does not look as good as the mdf designs and could be built looking better i guess it is strong and rigid , guess i may look at improving it once finished
there are some bits that could be better , and maybe if i spent the time i could have all the metalwork nicely finished ,

so far only tools used are drill , hacksaw, spanners ,file , vice , and screwdrivers

no plans as yet ,
cost well 2 * 3M lenths of unistrut costs £12 for a 3M lenth
