Getting started... for real now

Finally getting started on assembling the CNC machine.  I have most of the parts to build it except for motor and electronics. Found out I'm missing some screws.  Hope to get the table together in a couple weeks after the screws get here.  I have started painting the gantry plates (the orange plates in the pics).  I'll build the table first then assemble the gantry. The gantry is the top bar that moves across the table with the router (or laser) on it.
