I often get asked that question. I tell them that it will be the next persons problem, not mine.  :lol:  :lol:  :lol:  :lol:

Here we go:

Thats how I bought the machine:


It was a Deckel G2 pantograph engraving machine, but the pantograph got lost in all the years...so I decided to build a cnc out of it.

A bit of repainting:


The ballscrew in the Z-axis can also be seen.

Another angle on the nearly finished machine:


As you can see, the head can be tilted..nice little feature :)

There is a bit work on the electrics needed, the VFD is hovering around on my table without a proper protection against swarf...but so far, it works..you know, never change a running...

Today I played a bit around with the Microsoft Image Composite Editor, a pretty foolproof tool to make panorama views from a multiple series of pictures, and I tried it out in my shop:

Just a link, as the picture is very wide ;)

Opps, I overread the question back then:

Its the head from an X2 milling machine modified to take a standard motor and a belt drive, no noisy gears :)
