Westfalia Router CNC mount
thingiverse
I'm constructing a modified version of the MYDIYCNC project (http://www.mydiycnc.com/) with LMUU bearings, printed parts, and a sturdier build for a small 1-watt laser. However, since the laser can't cut through thick materials, I'm considering mounting a Dremel-like tool, like my 135-watt one. Upon researching, I found that spending an additional $20 could get me an 850-watt router, which sparked my interest. I purchased a Westfalia router (http://www.ebay.de/itm/170443956364?ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1497.l2649) despite its higher price, as it has a robust construction and removable base that's ideal for CNC mounting. However, the router is quite heavy (1.6 kilos without the base), so I created a more robust printable mount compared to others on Thingiverse. I haven't printed it yet, so use this at your own risk. I've also shared the FreeCAD file for modifications or derivatives. As it's my first upload, any feedback is appreciated, as I'm new to CAD. Since I haven't completed the project yet, instructions are limited; please share your experiences if you try this setup. The router mount has a 44mm diameter hole with a 48mm hole in my design for vibration reduction. I marked it as a work in progress since I haven't tested it yet. Happy printing!
