Base Construction

I recently started construction of the base frame. I am using various aluminum extrusions which can be purchased from Lowes, including:
  • Square tubing: 3/4" x 3/4", 1/16" thick wall
  • U channel 5/8" wide x 1/2" tall, 1/16" thick wall
  • 90 angle 1/2" x 1/2", 1/16" thick wall
Machine Base
Structure mad out of the square tubing, diagonal made out of the 90 angle, and the two X-axis rails made out of the U-Channel.
