Re: Router Collet Adapters

Think and Tinker have precision replacement collects for the Bosch 1617 and the Porter Cable. They have three different levels of precision. They are quite reasonable. They ship quickly and they also carry router but.

My tool path suddenly starts going deeper

Hello, on the last two runs that I have made, my tool path suddenly starts cutting deeper and deeper. The G-code calls for a consistent depth but the bit starts digging in. After I stop the program, I find the my Z0 is off. I can reset the Z0 but it is very scary to suddenly see a .08" cut become a ...

I purchased my Shark HD from Rockler. It was already assembled (it had been a demo) and there were no manuals of any type. Does anyone know how I can get a copy of the manual. I was surprised that they are not on the website in pdf format.

Thanks

How to measure if the router is square to the table

Hello, When I surface my spoilboard, I end up with a series of small waves. It appears as if my router is not square to the table.
