    Squaring your Gantry, 1530 and similar.

    Hi Guys,

    Is there any interest in a tutorial on how to square up the gantry on the larger Excitech routers? Let me know and I will make one.

    Hi shannon - Yes please.

    Would be valuable info for those of us that are not conversant with the setup of these machines.

    May be timely too - Last week Ramon Routered some S32 boards for a job, and the installer reported that there was a 5mm discrepancy in the location of the holes from the front to the back of the boards - they were only 450mm wide. Do not know if Ramon programmed them incorrectly or is it the router?

    I will get some pics and will possibly edit the first post to make the info easier to find.
    I also want to make it as clear as possible.
    Might be a couple of days so don't hold your breath.

    Sorry guys but I still haven't found time to take photos and write the tutorial.
    I could write it up but the photos will make things a lot clearer. I haven't forgotten about it.

    Happy to know that on the other side of the world there's no recession.
    On this side things start to become hard

    Ciao
    woodworker73, unfortunately - here in Australia - things are not looking good for the economy. Every week there are more and more stories of businesses folding and large numbers of people are being put out of work.

    Just yesterday Qantas Airlines announced that 1,750 jobs are to go.

    General Motors Holden are cutting a shift and will drop from making 600 cars per day, back to 300 cars per day. Instead of retrenching workers they are working one week on - then one week off. If GM in the USA file for bankruptcy the plant may close. Our fingers are crossed that this will not happen.

    Our government is giving every person that earnt less than 80K last year a payment of $900 this month in an attempt to keep our economy ticking over. After this money is gone we may be farked for a while.

    We can only hope that the worlwide economy improves, and the crooks on Wall Street are made to account for causing this crisis.(nuts)
    Have a read of this below to get an idea. A bit off topic - hope you don`t mind.
