Hello Vishnu, Welcome to the element14 Community, we hope you enjoy it. I will move this over to the Ben Heck Show area as it is a better fit. Thank you, Jamie

I used a dremel and a perf board as a template to line up the drill. If you are talking about using dc motors to move the gantry system i would shy away from that as you would most likely need some sort of feedback to tell the controller how far it moved. I have been putting some thought into a gantry system for a dvd burner laser I'm working on and was thinking a ramps kit would be a good controller as its fairly cheap and comes with steppers. I have a bunch of old okidata dot matrix priters i was going to use for the slides, they have thick slides and bearings pressed in blocks with threaded holes.

I ordered a micro drill press that holds a dremel tool. They can be had for about $25 on E-Bay plus the cost of the Dremel. There are small drill bits for it and you simply put the board up on the tool and drill the holes.

I wrote about cutting my own circuit board on my web site, in Part 3 there is a picture of it.

Hope it helps.

A computer controlled PCB drilling machine is just a CNC router. Ben has made one of these in the past.
