I found a great deal on some material the other day to make most of the gearbox and z axis components out of for this project. I changed my design last week to reflect the size of material I found. I picked it up yesterday and started machining the parts. For the gear box I am making the front and rear pieces from 1” think aluminum. It may be a little over kill but it was a really great price. I paid scrap price for these pieces. Spent about one hundred bucks and have more than enough to complete this project with some to spare. I forgot my camera last night to take some pictures of making them but I will get them this next week.

 

So far I only have the gear box pieces machined on to sides and will be working on the length and the holes this next week with pictures I promise.
