Comments sought on new build: A CNC Router for RC Gliders and Planes

[Lee Roberts]

Guessing it's for a belt arrangement for something?

Bet your loving having a cnc up and running you can make stuff on, I can't wait :).

No it's simply a spacer to hold the motor off the firewall so the propeller sticks out the nose the correct amount...

Yeah I'm loving it, just starting to be more adventurous get it finished Lee it's great fun...

Ahh right it's for a plane!

:) I will it's just a waiting game really, mechanically all I need for it now is two gantry side plates, two bearing plates and 3 motors, Dean is lined up ready to make the plates for me but I can't commit just yet as money is tite but I'm working on it :).

In the mean time I've been getting a few bits together for the enclosure, I'm actually ready to go with that side of things but again with out motors to connect it all too there's no rush so to speak.

I've just had my second injection for this new biological medicine they've put me on, I had my first one last week and the next morning I could feel the difference instantly when I tried to first stand up, normally I'm on steroids and painkillers during the day and the roids have been a great help in getting me some what mobile again but when I first wake up obviously those have all worn off through the night so I normally have to give my legs a min or two too adjust then go for it but as soon as I put weight on my feet (mainly the ball of my ankles) it's painfull, it's quite funny really because obviously as a man the first thing I need to do when I open my eyes is drain the bishop! But I can't because it's a painfull struggle getting to the bog lmao, it's been close lmao quite a few times as I've been bursting and needing to go asap lol

But as I say the future is brite and the morning after I stood up and to my amazement there was nothing there pain wise and since I've had no pain at all I really can't believe it, the doc said it would be 3 months before I would notice it starting to work, I'm not complaining!

Today I've been for a walk into town to get my hair cut, drop some packages off (switches for the lads) and get the girls a McDonald's for their dinner (brownie points) and I've made it back as happy as Larry because it was easy (normal).

Sorry I'm waffling on your build log but I'm just feeling so positive at the moment and i really cant wait but i really dont care either, what's more important in life as basic as they maybe is what I'm chasing at the moment :D.

Positive: Don't worry, my day will come and CNC better be ready for me 😎

Glad you're on the mend and things are getting easier for you to do normal everyday stuff...that's great news!

Hopefully things pick up a bit now and you can crack on with the build, look forward to seeing it!
