Neville you mentioned your machine is running belts. What type of linear rails does it use?
I'm stuck between the round bar type and the flat runner. I know the round bars are better for vertical but I won't need vertical slides.
I'll have to make a decision soon to get started on a frame before winter hits. I don't like welding in my back yard in winter, especially not if I have to use the MIG or TIG with gas (I'm out of gas for the MIG and TIG gas straight Argon isn't suitable), probably go gas-less but I'm not sure how that is in the wind. I should imagine it's fine since shielding gas isn't getting blown away. I haven't used gas-less wire much in the past.
Until I get the rails I can't design the frame.
