You aren’t “designing” these machines if you download all the dimensions off the web or copy them out of a book.

If you “design” these things then you create your own sizes and dimensions.

It generally starts with whatever standard components you decide to use. Motors, bearing, shafts etc. you design your components to fit these standard components. The dimensions follow from that process.
