Top on. I checked for square and level. It was fine! There is also plenty of room to clean and such under the router.

Ok something that says restroom is not that exciting, but it came with the trial version of Vcarve Pro. In any case... I have my first cut!

Today is clean up the shed and electronics day... let's see which one takes more time. By the way, I didn't plan on milling any aluminum yesterday but I was successful at that as well.

Good luck

Welcome to the world of CNC. As you get more experience under your belt you will mill the hard bits less and less, but I can tell you that even after 15years that problem never fully goes away.

This is one of mine from about 2 years ago:

I had to watch that a few times! The first time, I didn't catch it... I thought where did the bit go? Thanks for sharing I feel better. :-)

Hope to work on some of my limit switches this weekend.
