Here is my solution for adding limit switches to my 6040 router

The advantage is that I can tune the position where it kicks in. No special tools required other than a cheap ALDI threading kit.

Nice pictures. Why do you think you need to tune the limit switch? I mean, once it is set up I don't see any needs to change the limit switch position.

Yep, I guess so.

I'm not that great at getting the holes in the right spot, so it is good to be able to adjust

Oh, I see... That's what you meant by "tuning the limit switches" Of course, even my limit switches need initial adjustments and setup, but once that is done it will stay like that forever.

It is a nice feature to be able to adjust the limits when you have a slave axis. Then you could easily square the gantry when you home the machine by adjusting just one switch.


Were there a few choice words when you installed the switch in that last picture?

Looks great BTW.
