Gerald, it might be a good idea to also change out the bearings while you have it all apart. I trashed a set on a small router jig setup in just...
You mean besides the 298,00 € price tag?? They appear to be machine specific and only fit that manufacturer's equipment. It looks like something...
Gerald, the trail on the aluminum V-wheels goes cold here. You might be able to message the OP but the website he was creating has become...
Which Grbl controller? If you ordered a 4 axis TB6600, you are not using a Grbl controller, you are using a controller which requires Mach3. It...
Thanks for your post. Nice little machine you've created there. And yes, all opensource ideas are welcome and gratefully accepted. Some members...

Like Joe said, nylon 1/4-20s. @ $8-$10 per hundred they are a small fraction of the price of any bit. Combine that with delrin or hardwood hold...
You will need to trim most V-slot to length. They typically run about 5mm long. As for tapping depending on the location you may be able to use...
I will second the Magnate bits. And I don't just limit their use to wood. I was using the 2704 to shave some aluminum blocks a few days ago and...
