A torsion box is a long thin box containing a grid of boards that form a ridged lattice. This will insure that the table to of the CNC mill will always be flat. Right now I've got most of the parts of the torsion box cut out; I just need help cutting the long sides of the box along with the top. Once that's done I'll assemble the box, build the table, and then start building the CNC onto it.
In the mean time I need to find a place that already has a CNC machine that will cut the out the parts for mine for me. Some other people at the Asylum tried to scope out a possible place called the South End Technology Center, but when they went during posted open hours on Saturday, the place was closed. Hopefully it'll be open today.
Good luck with getting cooperation from the SE Tech Ctr!
