Firstly, the damage:
The old table has been ripped out to make way for the new. Also ripped out is the old Y axis stepper mount, replaced by the new one you can see at the back of the machine. A rear view:
And because I (usually) don't just rip things apart for no good reason, the new table semi-installed and being aligned:
I say "semi-installed" because it's just clamped in place- not screwed down yet. That said, it is pretty well aligned (just about as well as I can get it with a tape measure)- hopefully I can keep it still while screwing/bolting it down. The Y axis stepper is currently installed (it may well come off again during the process of securing the table); I would post a picture, but it looks pretty much the same as the Z axis...
