Gustave Build : Woodworking router

[pippin88]

I would do 2x in the L shape.

The increase in weight is not an issue.

Thank you for you reply pippin, I will make a draft with LShape (180x90) x 2 (It had approx 17kg to the gantry weight).

This evening, I make a review of the different 90° connecting option between my aluminium profil (40x80, 80x120 and 90 x 180, all have 10mm slot). In the picture below there is the most commun choice with the price in euros/unit. I don't consider square, I think it is the less stronger connexion.
I think I will probably using T-matik (1e46 + 0e30) from Systeal of milling connector from Motedis (1e44).

T-matik :
- a bit more expensive that the Milling connector
- simpler (one type whether 0° or 90° position and no machining)
- stronger connection that milling connector ?
- Eventually I can fill the profil (sand, concret) the connector don't create hole

Milling connector
- a bit cheap
- need more effort
- creation of hole
- perhaps less stronger (torque isn't apply directly)



As usual, I am really interested by you experience or opinion

I would use only cheap chinese side plates single and double row cast angle connectors in an aluminum build. No complicated stuff and is more sturdy







these inside hidden connectors and connections are good for furniture not \CNC machines
