    Have you had any problems with the add-on being in the way when the spindle goes to the bit plate during the "precut" sequences?

    I would not suggest trying to mount heavy things to an axis, the mchine's software is not expecting to have to account for it, YMMV. Also, the machine would have to have the top cover removed as shown in the video...

    How hard is that to make? And is it high enough to miss the bit plate?

    The placement of the vacuum tube will be a factor if you are using a sled. Also if you want to use large router bits like the ogee.

    cool shoe. i would think you could go down in size on the collection pipe to say 1/4" and it still pick up everything and save on weight. can you still carve 14.5" wide with it? guys appearantly it misses the bit plate cause he's carvin away with it.
