Good morning Everyone.
The concept is good,and that was all that I was realy looking at.
I was thinking of the racking problem and the stops on the Z-axis that we
were talking about earlier.
Perhaps a more robust router lift with bars and bushings could be the same
things as the "Z" column dose?
You know the old saying, "That there is always more than one way to skin a
cat". Just exploring new idea.
I have to go to work early today.
Talk to you all latter.

I'm very skeptical of this new gadget. The micro switch is not going to
be
reliable. Watch the readout when he presses the up button one time.
First
time was no change, second was .001 then .006, then the third time it
jumps
.009 then slips to .012 and slides to .011 and then it goes .018". That
does
not seem fast or accurate to me. I would guess if you turn the speed down
to less than 15% you could get .001 increments, but that is slow.
If I was designing this toy I would have used a choice of increment
buttons
where you can move the router by .0001, .001, .01, .1. Either that or
direct height entry. How cool would it be for us to have a diameter mode
where it starts at zero which would be the center of our stock and as it
raises a half inch, it reports a 1" diameter.
I really hope there is a way to shut the beeper off or change the volume.
That would drive me nuts. Otherwise, I like the concept, but the reality
is, IMHO, it might really suck.

I bet Tim is already on this one ,the mlcs does look kind of flimsy
.Not nearly as robust looking as Jessem lift or something from Incra.

OK guys. Im not going to do this, but wouldn't it be neat to have
something
like this mounted on the Legacy? You could control the depth of cut with
there digital scale, there is a depth stop... It looks to have everything
the Z axis has. (almost.)
Now back to reality. this system looks to be a little flimsy and there
realy
isn't enough room of movement to make it realy practical. but ... Its fun
to
think about.
any THOUGHTS on this one?
