I am working on a 8020 bolt together design. I have been working on this for a couple of months. It has really come a long way. I would like to share a PDF with you for input as it is different that anything I have seen.It will be using CRS rails and CNCrouterparts trucks. I have designed it so that it can be converted from a roller chain to lead screw or rack and pinion. the lead screw design and rack and pinion are from CNC routerparts also. I have designed it with two removable tables should you want to index a full sheet of plywood through it. most people use only a few feet of work space for most of their projects. The x axis is above the cutting table removing the problem of wood chips getehering on the rails and it also reduces the moment to the cutter head. It has been designed around the Porter Cable 7518 router.
