New Router

[johnm99]

I have completed all the cuts... on the machine and got most of it together...
i have ordered the xylotex controller.. have motors and lead screws...

should finish most of the assembly this weekend...
It seems like this has been draggin out forever... although I did have a bout with what the doctors said was WEst Nile...

Ill try to get some pics up later...


Anyone got any suggestions on a router/rotozip/dremel...
Will be cutting wood/plywood/mdf....???

Here are a couple pics of the router. Sorry it took so long but the Dr's said I had West Nile and I have been a little slow on getting it all together.

I know there will be a lot to learn about this design and probably push me into doing something different in the future but i suppose you must learn somewhere.



I have a few more pics of the controller and the box it will be in...
ill post them next....

COMMENT: These tiny metal angles seem to be weak, I guess that can be improved with a piece of wood to give more rigidity.

Or maybe its just for the building stage, in that case I deserve a

you are right they are...
I really dont know where I was going with that now...

I have a lot to do on adustments yet and stiffening (sp) it up...


I have learned a lot from the boards but I think I have learned a lot more from just building the router.

any other constructive criticism is accepted....
