Still determining scale, going to to depend on the printer tank to some extent (deal w/ that when I get to the software/tank building stage). I found some wooden spools that were used for flexible SS tubing which were made out of 32" diameter 1/2" thick wood, looks like they're going to work perfect for the main turntable. Will give you a heads up for one mistake/lesson I've learned already, bought a new hub off ebay but it had metric threads didn't think of that. Turns out here in the US it's a pain to find cheap bolts that size, usually higher grade stuff, so can't bolt directly into the hub. Where I'm at right now - probably use smaller SAE bolts unless I can find some reasonably priced metric - darn if i'm going to pay more for 4 bolts than I paid for the hub assembly!!!
