Hi all.
I’m interested in CNC for woodwork and would like eventually to build my own CNC. I have built and programmed (as a proof of concept only) a router lift but I really would like to get involved with CNC.

Welcome Peter!

What's a router lift? Sounds like something we'd be interested in!

Thanks for the welcome.
I have a router table and I wanted to automate setting the bit height to get accuracy. I also wanted to be able to quickly zero a new bit to the top of the table, This was over 3 years ago. Later I found out about grbl which would have done it for me but it was a learning experience so the time wasn’t wasted.
Here’s a link to a short video I shot.
