This is the first real comprehensive tutorial I have seen. I was even following the other thread when it was alive. This one must be pretty tough being made out of 1/2" MDF and all. If you cut everything right it should have no play anywhere. But yea like Don, said build a small one then use that to build one that is much better. I am sure on this one if you get the right kind of spindle motor and chuck you could do aluminum, though it may be slow, you could still do it. Just let it run all day or something.
