Hey guys
I may have missed this step, but where are you guys adjusting to tram the power route to the cutting surface?
Thanks

Hey guys I may have missed this step, but where are you guys adjusting to tram the power route to the cutting surface? Thanks I am finding there is quite a bit of play mounting the router in the router mount. I was able to get mine fairly straight by just loosening up the two bolts holding the front of the router mount on and adjusting the tilt of the router. Allen |

Allen This only allows adjustment in the Y axis tilt, but not the X axis correct? |

I found that I got quite a bit of movement in X, and some in Y.

The tilt about the Y axis has to do with the placement of the router mount on the Z plate. The title about the X axis has to do with the rails on the end plates. There is a bit of free fitment in the boot holes that would allow for a little ltilting forward or back.

Seems to be contacting and rubbing away on one end. If I could somehow shim the plate I think it would help with my tramming issue too.  |

I’m surprised to see that as there’s (theoretically but obviously not in your case) a small amount of clearance from the plane of the top of the linear bearings to the top of that support. My suspicion is that the floating support is just a tad taller than it is supposed to be (the tiniest amount would do it) or there is a burr on the X plates that it is fastened to, causing it to be higher than it should be. I’d suggest pulling it, checking for a burr around the mounting holes, and hitting that with a deburrer, sand paper, file, etc. alternatively you could knock down the top of that floating side ball screw support with a file or place a few thou of shim stock under the bottom of the Z linear rails.
