    Default Designer wanted to help make first CNC plasma machine.

    Hello everyone,

    I want to get into CNC cutting, I was planning to buy a table from China and a plasma, hypertherm locally.
    Underwhelming feedback from suppliers and general negativity towards Chinese manufacturers have steered me away from this.

    I have now decided to build the table myself, this would be a heavy 3m length table with steel frame and gantry.
    The last couple of weeks of research gave me a rough direction but I need someone with experience to Design the machine, do the maths etc and provide the drawing (can be a modified existing design)

    I figured here was the best place to acquire help for this Job.

    Would like to agree a fixed price for the work, anyone interested?

    Where are you located?

    If it were me, I would buy a used machine and upgrade the controls and make any mechanical repairs needed. That way all the hard (and expensive) work is already done, the controls are the easy part.

    I live in Belgium. I have looked at second hand machines but couldn't find anything fitting to my needs.
