I am building a CNC mill. I can't say from "scratch" but damn near. To put it another way, this is an "upgrade". My original base had 3 something inches of Y travel (to you, and away from you) This one has well over 8". I am making the physical mill while RBIEZE gets together a parts list.
Not sure if you can make a file you e-mail me. As of now, no, because I still have to master G-code. As for pots, I tend to make my CPU pots by way of brazing. A 4lbs "plug" of Copper 101 (99.99% ultra pure). Maybe if this thing hits off well, I could get a lathe and CNC that, but I don't want to bite off more then I can chew (at the moment).
