It’s 23:17:00 UTC on 31 October 2023 as I type this, so in 43 minutes it’d be hard to argue that it isn’t Nov 1st on machines all over the planet according to that clock, including nearly all of mine.
Edit:: what’s a day off amongst friends?

I didn’t even think to pull up the UTC I just pulled up timeanddate.com

Will those also work with a Makita?

Don’t think so. They’re just a smidge different (I think the Kobalt is bit larger). If you’re really tight on filament, maybe, but you’re better off printing off the correct mounts.

Bro YouTube didn’t adjust the time for me. I was all excited :weary:

Gonna have to stay up tonight I guess :person_shrugging:

I actually got the kobalt to fit in the makita mount (way loosen it, but it holds), but the Kobalt top part is slightly larger than the makita, so it won’t plunge all the way without hitting the bearing in the mpcnc… so the Kobalt mount is stepped out from the core a bit more to clear and I don’t want to have to swap mounts when swapping routers. Swapping routers is a frequent operation here.

45 more minutes? 12:00 EDT?

Hope you didn’t stay up and disrupt your sleep pattern for the unboxing video. If you did, then I hope this additional ASMR video for Machinists/Woodworkers helps you/others to relax …

I love how you tagged this thread!

Now just waiting for the man himself. With I’m assuming the big reveal

Edit: I’ll say I am impressed with the fact that the router is balanced well enough that the wrench is not falling off the table
