I am completely new to this, how did you do the threads on your new design clamps? Did you use the cnc for that? would appreciate your help thanks in advance.
I used the cnc to drill the holes and I tapped the threads by hand. I’m also new to this and hope to make more content that will help others gain the confidence and skills needed to complete their projects. More to come! Thanks for watching!
Hi! Great video. Could you explain how exactly you swapped the 300w spindle for the Makita router? Did you have to swap the spindle holder for a 65mm holder? Is the makita router hard wired directly to an outlet rather than getting fed power from the pos/neg wires that the original spindle was wired to? Asking because I'm looking to upgrade the 3030 to cut aluminum with less resistance, but I'm having a difficult time finding information on this. Thank you!
Thanks for watching! So in order to upgrade to a router you’ll need to purchase a 65mm spindle mount which is available on Amazon and Anolex’s website. The router is plugged straight into the wall and powered on manually. I just posted a video a couple days ago that covers the process I go through when running a part. You can unplug and discard the original red and black wires for the stock spindle as they’re dc power and no longer needed. In plugged mine from the board to make it a bit cleaner in the back. Definitely get the router if you want to cut aluminum! I’ll be posting videos in the future that covers cutting aluminum. Hope this helps.
Oh no, I’m sorry to hear that. If you have Amazon where you live I’d try that. I got mine off Amazon, or maybe contact AnoleX and see if you can work something out.
