Hi all,
I've attached a few pictures of my router. The first phase of building is complete. The grounded rods and the threaded rod for the X-axis have been mounted. I opted for the plan from
Michael Walach .
It's a tabletop router with a moving table. It's supposed to be build from Delrin but I couldn't find any here so I opted for what I had lying around. I build subwoofer enclosures and have plenty of 10mm clear acrylic sheet. I converted all imperial units to metric (more or less) and designed my own linear bearings (which are in the process of being completed). I took the plexi to a local lumberyard and asked them to cut it for me. 30 minutes and 2 Euro's ($2.5USD) later (cheapo!) all my parts were cut to the millimeter. It took me three evenings to get this far. I've got 2 weeks of leave so that means plenty of time to spend in the shop! I'll keep the updates coming.
Greetzzz,
Dimitri
