Thread: Bought a new router for CNC today

Hi Saisay

I have a Kress spindle on my machine and it's a very robust unit. The second picture is a replacement speed control for the FME1050 spindle.

Cheers

Thank you Geoff
I intend to use it with the Planet CNC setup.
Would you happen to have a plan for the router bracket?
It would be most gratefully received

Sorry Saisay, I don't have a plan for the bracket, but it's very simple, along the lines of this: Kress Milling Spindle Tool Holder 43mm Clamp CAM CNC MILL Laser Plasma | eBay

Didn't buy it though. It was machined up by a mate.

I just made this over the weekend on UHMHDPE,
Will have some photos of before and after over the long weekend as have not replaced the spindles yet.
I figured out that at exact 43.00 mm, it was just too tight to squeeze the spindle into it, so had to go with 43.6mm hole.
This is going to go into the shark and hence had to use the UHMHDPE.
The final slit was simply on the drop saw cutting it using a 2mm blade.
Let me know if you need the file that i used to cut it out.

Hope this helps,

regards
Harender

Thank you very much, I would appreciate the file as I have not received the Kress as yet.

Here is the final cut piece will swap it over tomorrow and have more pics

have uploaded the zip file as it did not let me load the crv file.

This was done using vcarve pro v5.5

hope this helps and happy to answer any questions that you may have.

thanks

Thank you very much Harender, I will make a testcut when I receive the router.

Hi Harender
When you received your Kress, what sort of plug was at the end of the cable?

It was a 2 round pin plug the 850 came with cable attached and the 1050 came with a detachable cable with the same plug end I had to buy an adapter for it I got that for $10 from jaycar
