No I don’t have a powder coater why??. The router dose tilt 90 degrees and more if you look in the slot you will see various tapped holes they go all around in a circle
See the pic of just the back plate mounted, this means anywhere in a 360 degree circle the router can be positioned. Also the back plate can be mounted lower or higher up the z axis to get the router lower down between the rails For horizontal work at different angles as well giving you very much greater options in the horizontal configuration see in the pic it’s in a lower position. Now I’m fairly sure by moving the top hat positions narrower on the z axis cross slide it would then fit a revo I have not done this yet but it looks possible so then this would let a revo cut internal threads.

This is a great fair dinkum mod and your execution is top notch. Do you have a powder coater? This is not so easily done on a REVO, so it will be a long ways off before I can do it. Curious minds have questions. It looks like in the pictures that the router can tilt only 45°L or R. How does internal threading happen? It looks like the Z axis plate would descend below the carriage for threading in the headstock spindle if the router could turn 90° L. Are there another pair of holes for use when the router is horizontal?
