Just in case you thought I had given up on designs for a woodworking router, here are a few more designs that never made it off the drawing board.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n

rack and pinion CNCRouterParts based setup with a reduction gearbox<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n

To be honest, if I was going to use all of these items, I might as well use one of their designs as well.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n

This one is closer to their designs, but uses geared steppers instead of a belt driven reduction gearbox.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n

This one takes a slightly different approach and uses some of the ideas from one of my smaller designs with vgroove wheels and linear slides that I actually own.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n

The above design makes use of sections of rectangular steel and is inspired by MadVac CNC<\/a> and based off a design that may have been by driftspin, but I can no longer find pictures of the actual machine I based it on.<\/p>\n

The idea is that a level bed of steel based Moglice<\/a>\u00a0epoxy resin is created on the rectangular sections against which the linear rails are mounted. The whole assembly is bolted together using pads of resin to create level flat surfaces.<\/p>\n

More recently I found RawCNC<\/a> and particularly liked their 1.5 extended version, so drew up a version of this, first in Sketchup, and then in Fusion360.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n
My version does not have all of the extra holes and cutouts in the side plates, as I am only interested in rack and pinion drive.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
I have also beefed up the corner plates and added additional mounting points for the outer frame.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
The inside of the bed is a torsion box design based on an idea by Theiss Hilmar<\/a>\u00a0that incorporates a 4 zone vacuum table.<\/div>\n
\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n
The worktop allows for multiple clamping methods including a Festool MFT style for use with bench dogs and clamps, M8 threaded holes, 8mm dowels or metal pegs.<\/div>\n
\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n
The 19mm bench dog holes also have screws at the bottom to allow for altering the size\/shape of the vacuum table zone, the grooves are for running lengths of vacuum sealing strip material.<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
