    Quick Change Tooling???

    Hey Everyone.. I am making a 24x36 cnc router / mill.

    I want to try and make a quick change tool / collet setup so I can set my tools up before I do a run then just change them out as needed....

    Is this possible? Has anyone made a custom spindle and collet setup?

    Thanks for any input or direction.

    look into setting up the bit itself as a limit switch..... by using 5v current from the breakout board and a conductive surface u can let the machine know the length of the tool... if u search limit switch on youtube there are videos on what u r talking about.....
