The workshop now has a CNC router. It has been loaned to us by Matt Harding. So please be kind to it.
It is a 4'x4' sliding table/fixed gantry setup with a maximum 10" of Z travel. Currently it has a handheld router attached that has a 1/4" chuck.
We will be using Mach3 to control it. Run the Mach3-Loader and then choose the "Logitrol-Mach3" profile.
For reference the gantry is the X axis, and the table is the Y axis. There are no limit switches so be careful not to run to the end of each axis. Doing this repeatedly will cause the ball screws to fail and it is an expensive repair.
