Monster sized! Curious to see whether someone mills Alu plate to mount taller spindles with a 3rd bracket up top, maybe a U shape plate sandwiched between existing core and PLA/PETG mounting brackets. Bottom of the U provides a retaining ledge to help prevent hefty spindles from dropping below a certain point (incase main brackets are not appropriately torqued, and/or warp or partially fail).
Seen videos of garage fires started by routers slipping down getting stuck in the stock.
Can’t you just take longer screws for the top bearings and add another holder there?
I made a near-exact drawing to show what I mean:
Hmm, not a bad idea. I was thinking of a clamp near the zip tie points.
@Tokoloshe - This is what I have come up with so far. Some geometry problems but overall I think this will help stabilize the top and cut down on flex/pivot.
Looks great, really interested in how that turns out. 
Side note: A lot of us are on Printables (We should follow each other on Printables.com - Let's. Post your @username / page URL).
@Tokoloshe, Seems to work, the weight of the spindle is essentially supported by the top of the core.
So I guess it is getting there, meanwhile the bottom bracket is still printing. I made some adjustments to lower the spindle a little more at the bottom.
Next step is dust collection, I have some freebie TPU I got in a promotion that I am itching to try out.
Will keep you posted.
Moved models with edits to printables, will update photos here in the future.

Looks great!
Do you have limit switches for homing the gantry? It appears that the connection point for the dust collection hose is to the left of the spindle. This could be a problem for homing the X axis.
I have TMC2209(s) and use sensorless homing.
I will take a look at the geometry and see how it interferes.
Have you tested the accuracy of that? The only reason I bother with extra wires, endstops, and screws is that is posted as pretty poor accuracy. It is fine for getting a 3D printer near home, but we rely on more accuracy doing things like tool changes, squaring and leveling.
@Ryan, I have limit switches for the Z Axis, but not for X or Y. In my previous build I had a lot of trouble with the limit switches and “mechanical” failures, it was one of the reasons I moved to sensor-less homing.
I did spend some time adjusting the bump sensitivity, and homing speed, and I have not noticed any issues with accuracy.
To be fair, I have only used my CNC to cutout individual wood shapes, where accuracy / repeatability is not required. Think 40 little Christmas tree ornaments…where they do not have to be perfectly the same.
Part of the reason for the spindle upgrade was to attempt more difficult projects where this might be a factor.
The vacuum mount definitely interferes with the endstop. I will see if I can rework the mid vacuum mount to possibly integrate the endstop, Using that extra hole to help support everything can’t hurt, and I think it would be better even for the sensorless homing to bump a more solid part rather than the flimsy vacuum clip.
I have the spindle mounting hardware installed now, and I hope to be able to spin up on the weekend. So far I am happy with the solution, but I may have to resort to leveraging the upper bearing bolts as studs to lock the top mount down.
Just be sure to cut that white pipe all the way down to just above the second clamp. Do not clamp it to the top of your router. That is begging for issues. The biggest weakness is torsion and you are adding a breaker bar to it that way.
Just be sure to cut that white pipe all the way down to just above the second clamp.
@vicious1, I just want to be sure I understand, the vacuum pipe could be a big lever, so don’t tie it to the top bracket. Do you think it would it be OK to zip-tie it to the core after the bend?
I think he means to cut here and then attach the hose because it is flexible and does not act as a lever:
Exactly!
@Tokoloshe, @vicious1, Thank you so much for the help. In the end, I ended up using Philipp’s first suggestion as the solution. Vacuum hose / clamps also adjusted.
Looks like this, maybe today I will finish wiring the spindle up!
Perfection! Much more ideal that way. If you can anchor it to the top of the Core it will assure there are minimal forces on the cutter. What size hose it that and do you know where you got it?
Wooo, a solution. 
Hope it works.
