thoughts

  • cheap
  • cutting area 12x12x6
  • equal length parts for lead screws, and linear shafts
  • few custom parts as possible
  • few wood cuts as possible or in small enough sections machine can cut itself
  • single pcb for control 4x6 inch in size
  • find good power supply for everything
  • tweak 5d reprap firmware to control spindle and allow for tool changes
  • cuts for endstops and encoders
  • possibly go to higher thread per inch lead screws
  • work on x,y,z flexing
  • write gcode for zeroing out cut area
  • larger z platform for holding different tools, spindle, extruder, laser, router, dremel etc
  • figure out good way to mount bushings and leadscrew nuts.
