I've always wanted to build a somewhat bigger 3D-printer and also recently came across a video of a 5-axis CNC-machine for milling molds out of foam, so i thought it would be nice to build a 2 in 1 machine.
The actual purpose of this machine is to serve as a test platform to test out different manufacturing techniques such as milling, 5-axis milling 3D-printing and maybe even laser cutting. The 5-axis milling is only intended for very soft materials such as foam, to mill molds. The construction (aluminium tubing) doesn't allow for harder materials such as wood or steel or similar.
