I like very much yor machine because it is low inertia (i think), but i think you would change the leadscrews by 20 mm diameter, 4 mm pitch, or 16 mm diameter, but a pitch superior to 4 mm.
If the leadscrew work well then hink about ballscrew in the same way.
pine looks good but will give you problems later. plywood or mdf should be chosen over any hard or soft woods to minimize warp and wane due to the grain pattern of the wood. climate changes will inevitably cause stress in your setup as each piece shrinks, bends, or twists "naturally" due to dry or humid conditions. not trying to be a critic, just want to save people from future problems.
Thanks for your comments! I'm using stepmotors from Xylotex and Mach3/LazyCam to manage the router. The bearings is simple roller skate bearings. So far I have not gone further than the videos shows. To be honest...I got a bit fed-up after the building process. I'll wait to the autumn and will study the Mach3 further. The system seems to work fine, though it isn a bit too slow. I may do something to that. And again....thanks for comments!
That cnc router is freaking sweet! Thanks for sharing. I gotta build one sometime.
