    Saw your pics of the acrylic and diamond plate for the enclosure on the OpenBuilds Facebook group. It is really looking good!

    Hello Pedro, can you tell me where you bought the C channel and the X axis channel/tubing? It looks to be the same type as the K40 but I can't find it online. Thanks!

    THOUGHT THAT LOOKED FAMILIAR. WONDERED HOW ROBUST THE XY STAGE WAS?
    WAS LOOKING AT THE HIGH SPEED 500X300......JUST NOT QUITE BIG ENOUGH AND ABOUT TWICE THICE THE PRICE AS THE 600X400.....BUT LOOKS BETTER BUILT THAN THE 600X400.
    THEN AGAIN WITH ALL THE 2020 SUPPORT FOR THE FRAME.....LOOKS LIKE IT WOULD WORK.
