Huh. If it wasn't for shipping costs I'd have made enough money just today for the router upgrade to the CNC. BUT I might order lumber first, in a few days when everyone has their items and it's cleared the bank, and use November profits for the router. 🤔

@Brisse

Router! Router! Router! Lol

How big is the CNC, Ange? (I'm geekin out rn)

@BosmangBeratna It's a 4040, so around 16x16 working area. 3 inch depth of movement, but the router would be a huge step forward compared to the tiny 75 watt spindle.

@BosmangBeratna @Brisse Got my first Makita in 198(inaudible). Still have it, still works just had to replace the trigger which I could because they had the part, AMAZING

@b4cks4w @Brisse

Fkn eh, haha

Mi Old Man gave me his Makita circ when I opened my renovation business. That thing is still kicking, and it's older than me.

It's not a dedicated crosscut saw in the shop, bc it's so fkn reliable. I ended up returning a Skilsaw Wormdrive because I didn't need it, lol

@b4cks4w @BosmangBeratna Nice, my understanding is there's also a DeWalt router that also fits but requires a bigger mount. I just picked the Makita because it was cheaper. 😂 It's even cheaper than some less powerful spindles.

@Brisse @b4cks4w

They're workhorses, too, you're gonna love it. In the large-scale cabinet shop I used to work at, every other station had a dedicated Mak w/ the most used trim profile for the prj. Super efficient tool, takes up next to no space at all, and I'd contest works just as hard as an M1 Garand, lol
