And then the dust collector drops in (in our case a 3.5 stage 3h 240vin the same room) …what spindle/router noise?😂 Thanks for the vid! Been curious about side by side. If we upgrade to a spindle it’d most likely be for runout accuracy improvement, but then, maybe time to move to an Epilog (mainly cutting mdf). Now to listen to your wc vs ac spindle vid… 😊
Great comparison. Thanks for posting this. Im getting a CNC machine soon and I'm a little concerned with how loud that router will be while its cutting also. Routers are loud at it is!! Thanks again.
Looks scientific enough 😁 watercooled here too .. with 5 manual routers in my shop and not wanting to deal with brushes failing let alone the noise, I went water cooled from the get go 👍 and run until 2am with the neighbors none the wiser 🤣
Forget the noise: how about a router isn't designed to run as long as a spindle. The brushes and bearings WILL wear out in under a year with hobby level running. Think about it: they are designed for edge trimming around a board and done. In a CNC they run for hours on end. Get a spindle and call it a day for reliability alone.
