I've done serious mods to my Taig, MaxNC, and Chinese noname router. I retrofit an early 1980s Hurco KMB1 to Mch 3 control. Now I am starting my first frame up build. This is a "test" build so I'll be skimping on a few the things, but if it works out well I'll build some more with more care.

Its a simple concept. Table moves in Y, Spindle moves in X & Z. I am considering a horizontal table design for the future to help with chip clearing when pocketing, but this first one will probably be a nice boring regular flat table setup.

Say hello to Metal Nibbler 5.
