    Router, everyone wants bigger right?

    I want a 3m*2m

    My machine, If I rebuilt it now I would make sure I have 1.8m travel * 0.9m, but I actually have 1.2m * 0.7m, 0.8m if I convert to belt drive.

    Height 5cm seems good I gave myself 9cm and now am adding 3.6cm of MDF to reduce the travel.

    If you didn't buy it from China the company you bought it from did ;)

    Sorry about that, I really should read the whole thread before answering!
    Ideal size for me would be 800x450x150.

    One day a pattern will hopefully emerge, but not yet!
    For me:
    #1 Machine type, Router
    #2 Cutting area X 500mm, Y 600mm, Z 150mm
    #3 Ideal overall footprint size W,D,H 750x900x600
    #4 Floor standing or benchtop. Benchtop
    #5 Material most likely to be cut. - Wood

    Beginning to understand that everyone's requirements vary considerably, no wonder no two builds end up the same, and yet have so much in common!
