Rockcliff Router Build

[mwixon]

I'm using the mcmaster connectors that are on the pdf plans. Mcmaster 6412k11

These do have two set screws. I'll look into locktite or maybe I'll google the lovejoy connectors you mentioned.

Thanks for the tips

This is my first post here on cnc so I hope this is the proper way to post. I purchased the Rockcliff plans and received my code in less than 24 hours. I have not been through all the drawings yet but did study the A and the D drawing sets. I will be in the area of a metalsuppermarker next week. If I understand this properly and build the linear bearing assemblys in the D drawing sets I would use 3/8 ground shaft instead of 5/8. Or dose it matter?

Ok guys, I'm seriously thinking about going with the "Rockcliff" large flying gantry model with 288 oz stepper motors. I've asked some questions of Rockcliff and Nick was very quick to respond. Has anyone built the large flying gantry model yet? How does it do and what (if any) suggestions do you have?

I want to do cabinet doors, signs, and just basically play.

Thanks

This post will serve a couple of purposes, first since I've ordered plans i would like to bump this discussion to the first page. Additionally I want to get rid of that annoying first post NAG!
