Alpha births a mini-bot

I have been working on this on and off for over a year. Drew it in Insignia, and cut all of the aluminum on my Alpha. The Alpha cuts were so accurate that all of the bolts just dropped into place and could be fingertightened.

The mini bot has 0 backlash using ballscrews and antibacklash nuts. The cutting size is 6" x 11". Control system is Mach 3 and Geckos

Dan,
That's a nice looking little machine! Given the size restraints, will you use it mainly for engraving, model making or something else?

Mike,

The plan is to use it for engraving, small lithophanes, and making small brass clock gears
