Are the even before you start the homing cycle? Loose set screw on the motor pulley? Loose belt? Machine square? I had a similar issue....
No problem. It took me forever to pull the trigger on the planer. I wish I would have done it sooner.
Yep. 3/4" ply, 12-3/4" wide x 80" long. I covered it with 120 grit sandpaper. I use wood shims in the high spots with a dab of hot glue where...

In case you aren't aware, machine profiles are unnecceary. They are info only. The post processor doesnt use them except to have a nice comment...
A google search of ER32 Spindle will bring up some options. Again, they are too heavy for hobby machines and probably why you havent found any at...
