Hi guys, I am busy planning a build - but will only be able to physically start at the end of October. I have printed out the plans, and am busy studying them to fully grasp what I have taken on!! I love the helpful nature I have seen throughout this forum, so I am quietly confident that (with a lot of help) I will manage to complete this task, despite no real experience working with metal!
I am in the lighting industry, and hope to offer something new with the help of my MM.
Between now and the end of October I would like to start ordering as much as I can, so that I have something ready for me by the time I am available... I just don't really know where to start.
what I am thinking is:
Gantry, then table, then electronics - but I have noticed a number of people start with the table.
Are the cut and bent parts available as a kit from a local supplier (Cape Town)?
Anyway, I'm extremely excited about starting to build something I would always have thought to be way out of my depth, before stumbling over this forum!
