Hi all.
A question probably asked before but here goes first question as new member.
Strangely I can get 25mm bright round bar (bright = very nice finish on it) for better I can get conduit pipe!!!??!?
My questions is - will the additional weight of the bars be a problem for the design? The Z access will still be 25mm conduit pipe to keep it light, just curious if the cross beams the Z-axis is mounted on need to remain pipe or can be solid bar - or what the implications would be? I get the fact that the cable run can’t be inside the round bar
The intent is to use it primarily as a plasma cut table allowing standard steel sheets of 1260mm wide be accommodated. Hence the investigation into round bar to help deal with the flex over a 1465mm recommended length on the calculator.
Yes - the low rider is there - does not appeal to me - its more specific to a particular job - the standard setup seems more flexible to me - (un-informed opinion as it may be)
Thanks in advance for the feedback.
