Been stalled on this, but… I knew I would be.
Finally have all of the spoilboard pieces, plus extras. Time to start screwing in the T tracks.
Also have a 2" dust collection hose. I need to design and print an adapter to the LR shoe, but that’s easy enough. I did some measurement of the shoe pieces, to copy the oval with flat side outside shape as the inside shape for an adapter. From there go to a 2" diameter which will go inside the hose, and zip tie the hose onto that.
Then a simple adapter to connect the hose to the shop vacuum, and make sure I use hearing PPE.
I did get some angle for the drag chain and hose, which I’ll need to cut. I was hoping not to need it, but it’s easier than what I would need to do to just use the drag chain. I do like the power cable clips though, they work great and allow quick mount/dismount of the router. I think I’ll add a wire harness for a laser, now that I have the work done for the Makita base mount, making a good laser mount should be trivial. I was looking at the 15W NEJE again…
Well, new/expansion projects might be on hold a while. Kendo Canada has announced that they will be holding a rank promotion grading at the end of the year this year, and I want to go try for my next rank. That’s a few grand for the weekend and exam fee, so might have to start saving my loonies.
