    I'm going to make a frame from 2*1 on ply wood so the router sits on the frame, then drill a hole in the ply for the vac bed. I can very easily drop the router onto anti vibration mounts or sit it on 20cm thick rubber bump stops.

    Is there any point?

    My wiring is dodgy on the spindle, luckily I didn't damage it!

    I need to resolder properly but I decided today I was in disaster mode and anything I do will break things even more lol. Asked my electrician mate to come help me sort it.

    Tripping out RCD so it's earth related.

    But we did do a test cut ;)Click image for larger version.

    The first movements I had a dead spot on my router where the ballscrew was catching but quickly traced to my motor mounts. Under one of the mounts on one side was a washer but not the other. Removed the washer and all was good ;) Struggling to fit my limit switches lol, broke 3 cobalt drill bits so far bloody M3's far too flimsy.

    until the power goes out lol, since it tripped the rcd (doing this cut) I bet it's the earth connection I obviously need to redo it properly.
