Types of baseboard and other questions

Hey Peter,

the “Bookmarks” feature of this forum is nice. I have all these things quickly at hand under “Dimensions”:

@Nightowl

What are the exact footprint dimensions, i.e. without the “stick out” of the stepper motor? I’m thinking about manufacturing a frame to sit the machine in, rather than screwing it into an MDF board, as this isn’t a great method for securing the machine.

@Nightowl

• What type of screws are provided to secure the machine to the mounting board, if any, and what is the likelihood bolts could be used instead?

• Common Bolt Types on the Onefinity
• Where are the washers?

@Nightowl

I’m also thinking of mounting the machine on a metal (steel or aluminium) plate, rather than MDF, for the reasons above. Has anyone successfully attempted this.

@eaststreetcarry

It’s aluminum.

@Machinist

Pretty much completed this weekend!
