So I had a spare 1000x1000 Shapeoko 2 that I was constantly tripping over and not in use along with a handful of 500 rails from when I upsized my original machine.
I cut down 2 of the 1000 rails to form the uprights and cut down the gantry and reconfigured it into something new. I have a few things in mind for this setup but will refrain from sharing my final ideas until I know if I can pull them off
