Basic CNC Mill (Dremel cnc hardware)

Description

I began about a year ago trying to build the upgraded Dremel CNC built by Nickodem Bartnik. After finishing the build I ran some tests and the design had really low rigidity. I wanted to be able to mill thin aluminum parts, but the Dremel CNC design just wasn't going to cut it. So I designed a more rigid CNC around the same parts used in his machine and some spare stuff I had on hand. After a month or so of tinkering, here is the resulting design. The reason I hadn't posted this design for so long is because it is still unfinished, the grbl software it runs is extremely buggy, and I am currently using some low quality motors/ adapters that have made it hard to test the capability of this machine. Nevertheless I wanted to post this design in case anyone wanted to use the parts or modify them for their own use. I hope to get some new software and some better motors on this machine before making a build guide.
