    Interested and watching.. Make sure as you go through the build process, you include an upgrade path from those who already have a lead machine. I would also suggest you take into account those who have the 1010.

    Side note.. I purchased my 43mm spindle mount from makersupplies.dk and am very happy with it.

    Thanks for your suggestions. Apart from the gantry plates and wheels I think all the rest of the LEAD machine will be reusable for a Piranha. We do plan to use Tensioning Nuts and Thrust Bearings but that will still be fully compatible with the LEAD. So point taken and we will compile an upgrade from "LEAD_to_Piranha" BoM as part of the project.

    Happy to hear that you have good use of the spindle mount. Thanks for your feed back.
