Ok my mistake it is 2.85Kg and not 3.4Kg I made the mistake when I converted from 6.283Lbs to Kg.
Right now we know I'm an idiot I have changed the design round to the rails on the same plate as the spindle, The reason I did it the other way round was there would be less weight for the stepper motor to lift, I also have a question about the gearing, If I used a 2:1 will I not lose torque but gain the speed from the stepper motor?
Here is my new drawing see what you think, I would have liked to put the two bearing blocks in line with the gantry blocks but i would lose a lot of travel, Anyway how high should I make the bottom of the Z mounting that holds the router from the table.Last edited by Bush Flyer; 12-04-2013 at 09:01 PM.
