A (hopefully) simple CNC mill built without welding

The axes are going to slide along aluminum angle "tracks". I was originally going to use round rod for the track, and three sets of doubled up bearings to create a slot for the rod to slide in.

This would require twelve bearings per axis instead of the eight my final plan uses.


My final plan calls for each axis to have two trucks made from angle iron. this will hold the bearings at the correct angle to slide in on the aluminum angle.
