CNC Torch and Router Table 2 - Working Tool Holder - Requirements
From Open Source Ecology
- Tool holder will need to be adaptable to hold oxy/acetylene torch, Plasma cutter, and router (+ others as needed)
- Base of the wood router is significantly larger footprint than that of the torch or plasma head, this will need to be accounted for.
- Suggesting an adaptable design with configurable base plate that can be matched to whatever router you want to use, and mounts to the vertical shaft.
- Adaptable to wider gantry plate if tooling requires it to be thicker for rigidity.
- Accommodate mounting of height sensor.
- For CNC routing
- Base plate will need to divert the air blowing out of the router (so it doesn’t blow dust everywhere).
- Allow for wrench access to the collet.
- Attachment point for a vacuum hose.
- Removable brush shroud.
