Folks,
thanks for the replies,
I have some redesign of the Machine to do I think....
.
Clamping:
Better clamps are needed I am thinking those Ive linked to below.
redesign of the bed is also needed ...I am thinking of installing Tracks link
below also.
this change combined with the use of double sided tape should help a lot.
.
Rigidity of existing machine:
Yesterday I went along each of the rollers on the X axis and adjusted the eccentric nuts on the rollers to tighten them, I did notice an improvement. I will complete this for the remaining rollers.
.
Linear slides:
To do this I need to redesign the machine... so this is a phase 2 change and I am not ready for that yet. Before I commit to linear slides, Id like to do some engineering analysis on designs to ensure the design is going to be good enough
.
0.5in spindle:
having a larger collet will help vibrations as far as the advice I've been given goes... the chinese spindles i have seen only have a 0.5in n a 2.5Kw spindle. this is whole lot bigger than the 700w router I am using... but it would also be heavier and would just add to problems with the current machine.
.
Bits:
I definitely need to cut up to 30mm depth 2d profiles through hardwoods. this is for guitars and necks... any advice on bits for such jobs would be appreciated.
