First of all thanks Ryan for the design of the LR2, I’m very excited about this project and the posibilites of having a CNC at last. Indeed, this is my first important project in my workshop, and I have to tell you that I’m a little bit nervous whit this project.
I have every part ready to the assembly process, and I hope to have the LR2 ready in few weeks. My idea is to send to this forum pictures of my steps, and maybe with time, of my designs in wood.
the Low Rider 2 is assembled and waiting for the new Mini-Rambo to make the first tests. I am very happy with how it slides, it is a really great design!
You might want to come up with some sort of strap to keep the yplates and Z axis together while hanging, you might have already killed those couplers. The springs will really perform poorly during a cut.
