I’ve had my LR v1 on a torsion box table ( details here ) for a long time. And it has always bothered me to have the gantry going the long way. I also still want to have a go at milling the ends of boards, or maybe the sides of already built projects by clamping them to a vertical surface. This is me…

Using 1/2-round as an edge banding is a great idea. I’ve never thought of that. I usually use square stock and then hit it with my router.

I spent some time sanding the heck out of it. It doesn’t give me splinters anymore. [IMG_20210422_152748] I cut and installed the bottom “shelf”. It is strong. I stood on it. It has about 15x 2" screws holding it up. The dust collector just fits. I can remove the hose and it comes out pretty eas…

This could be the new standard… Nice work, good ideas.

[IMG_20210423_121358] I had to think pretty hard to not go buy a new sheet and still get two full layers. The front edge is my reference edge, and I really hope I have the clamp face perpendicular to that edge. But I believe it is very close. I did end up gluing the main board on the bottom layer…

On to the mechatronics! [IMG_20210423_163456] I cut quite a bit off of the tubes. It is about a foot shorter, maybe 14". I just had it set up the hard way before. My Z tubes are still crazy long. I still have to install the longer belts. I needed my hack tracks before, so I might need to attach …

I like the new shape, much better! Good job on how square you got it. That will make every cut a lot easier.

[IMG_20210425_165719] Back in its corner. I added 3/4" aluminum angle. I bought the 1/8" thick ones, but I think it was a waste of money. They were $20 each. Oh well. It rode very smoothly when I didn’t have the belts on. Let’s hope it stays as smooth. I am reworking the hose/wires next. Then I wi…
