    Any update on how the build went? How does this design perform? Very interested in building my own and this design fits the bill perfectly! Would love some pictures if you have them. Keep up the great work!

    Ok guys, the build is up and running. I am currently at work, when I have time this evening I will upload a few pictures and the 4 things that I have made with the CNC machine.

    Next weekend I am going to rebuild the Z axis because I found a new way to give it more cleared, and I will get a detailed par list together as well, looks like I can mill 30in by 30 in on this guy

    any update on how the machine is holding up? I was looking at alternatives to the sphinx plates and was thinking along same lines as you did.
