I couldn't wait until Saturday so I knocked out the last few parts I needed to get assembled. I think it looks great! More should happen on Saturday with the installation of the main instrument panel and some skin sections.

The table build is finally done (enough)!
The audio in this video is all over the place, my apologies!

I buy my pocket screws from these folks: https://www.cshardware.com/screwfinder - the Easy Screw Finder is a great tool!

This was taken in December of 2010 on the prototype display. It looks a lot better in person than on the video. I can't wait to see it on the full sized display!

A few weeks ago, I chose the wrong tool for a job and set fire to the table on my ShopBot. It was a heavy smoke, flameless and very hot fire. Think blast furnace. Fortunately, I caught it in time. Had I left the building for even a minute, I could have lost the whole shop. The damage shown only took about 10 seconds to happen. If you have a ShopBot or other CNC router, don't EVER leave the machine alone while it's running!
The video shows the damage and the nice new vacuum plenum I made to replace the damaged one.

I got an unexpected surprise today! A set of the new delta arm design for the Rostock MAX 3D printer from SeeMeCNC!
These arms don't require any sanding (really!) and are much stiffer than the original arms.
