Building an Alum CNC router | |
This is my first router I have designed from scratch. I am designing it around the linear ways that I got from e-bay.
I am building the spindle right now. I chose to not go with a router because of the excessive noise and not being able to use my R-8 collets from my mill. I am going to power the spindle with a DC motor so I can get variable speed. If I run the pulley system on a 1:2 I can get 5000 RPM which will be fine for my use.
