This is the v.09 release of my milling machine. Its complex and may or may not be worth your time making. I'm being very honest about that, this mill is a continuation of my ongoing experiment into the viability of 3d printed concrete machine tools. While the results are promising, its very solid and seems to run well, this is a mill designed by someone who has never actually used one before. It is hard for me to judge problems with the mill vs problems with my inexperience in machining. Some might even call it a mockery but that's another discussion.

That is to say, stuff could go wrong or not work. I'm just making that clear. 

Anyways if your still here, here are the important links:

This documentation is around, uh, lets say 97% done. I need to create a video on running the wires but that's about it.
