New LR4 Build in France (Paris) - Folding Table - 40mm Dust Shoe Adapter

I’m happy to share that I (almost) finished the build of my LR4.

As a newbie (except on 3D printing) I’m hitting all possible walls (thanks styrene foam…) but after a few attempts, I finally managed to cut out my strut plates :slight_smile:

My LR4 has a 1100x830mm usable size, a Makita RT0702C router and due to lack of space in my garage I had to make it storable so I designed a folding table (picture).

After a few tests, I quickly realised that vacuum was more than essential. As I only have a 40mm tube I rapidly design an adapter (on picture) for the official dust shoe (I wanted to keep the posibility to adapt the skirt and bristles). If it can be useful for someone else I may make it available on Printables.

Thanks to Ryan for creating and sharing this great machine (and great documentation for assembly, milling basics, Estlcam, etc.), to all that helped me so far and to all that surely will :slight_smile:
