First is this even possible, and second wat are your suggestions?? I don't need a huge swing or length, I will use it for regular hobby use. A 7x12 or even a 9 x whatever would be fine. I was looking...

Ahh, Thanks for the dimensions:) How does it work for you?? Do you use it on a CNC router??

I've been lookingfor the dimensions for the rotozip to size my cnc router accordingly so that it can be used down the road if needed. However I can't find the dimensions anywhere. Does anyone know...

What is the benefit of pre-tensioning the lead screws?? Is this absolutely necessary??
