It turns out Hi James, Virtually all routers have a slightly different diameter and I like my clamps to be +/- .002" of the actual diameter, so...
Nice work Serge! You might add a/my Router mounting kit. I suppose a/my dust collection kit could come under vacuum system, but you could have it...
Hi My, Builders who had trouble getting the wheels tight enough were successful using eccentrics on all 6 wheels, not just the 3 per the original...
Thanks Mark!
Hi Bismark, A lot of people are using the DWP611. I've shipped 8 of my OX mounting kits I designed for that router already, as well as 7 of my...
Very impressive wood working to support your Ox.
I stand corrected, thickness is more important the type of aluminum when it comes to rigidity of the OX plates, but if in a bout of frustration...
Ahh... the good old days. My very first machine shop class five years ago when they actually let me use the machines. It was also my first...

" 6061-T6 generally regarded as a high strength material (and it is) has a yield strength of 276Mpa and it's Modulus of elasticity is 68.9MPa. "...
I suspect you will find a difference in the stiffness of annealed 1/4" aluminum (6061-O) verses tempered 1/4" aluminum (6061-T6/T651)
Even more important than the difference between 5mm and 6mm is the type of aluminum. Tempering can make the aluminum over 200% stronger. I use...
Wow! I can't believe you got everything together and working in less than 3 weeks! Btw, nice looking gantry plates there ;)
Hi Mizuno, Paul is using a Bosch 1617EVS on his OX, and it is listed as 7.7 lbs (pby 6 lbs after you strip it down) You can see it with my mount...
Hi Rich, I think Paul is right.... use the money you would have spent for a second mount kit towards a good router.... you may not need one as...
Hi Rich, Yes, I am making mounting kits for many types of routers... I have made and sent out 4 different types so far... Makita 700c Dewalt 611...
Hi Rich, Also, some builders have switched to a nema 23 and 20 x 60 for the Z axis. Other than this minor change made by some builders, I do not...
Has anyone cut aluminum with their OX yet? How thick? I am curious what materials have been cut so far.
That is my understanding, Serge used Nema 23's on the X and Y with my plates and everything works fine. [email protected]
Thanks for the info Serge. Hope the electronics installation goes well. Chris
