SEFF M1 3axis CNC Mill Build

The entire thing was leveled and cast with deep pour epoxy. The yellow sheet is HDPE un the event there is a leak in the box. There was a slight leak, and since HDPE bonds with basically nothing, it was a good barrier from the concrete. This pour used 18 litres of epoxy.

And here is where the fun begins. During the de-molding I discovered that the mold release failed and now the melamine is a permanent fixture. A combination of milling, hand planing and scraping to get the bulk of the chipboard off.

Once all of the wood was removed I milled pockets for the ball screw mounts and drilled through from the top to get to the bolt holes for the rail trucks. Here is the resting place thus far.

Received the BT40 spindle from China.
