Well, heres photos of my operational but still needs a few things build.
I will say, the EPO switch is something that I should have done from the start.
Ive cut new y plates from wood that are 1 in longer, to accommodate the thicker table.
Printing new ziptie-less Y Belt Tensioners.
And learning some of the quirks of Fusion with this machine. Its definitely less forgiving of some settings.
Did you cut your own aluminum plates?
Yep, I have access to a CNC router at a school that I mentor Robotics at. Cut em from 1/8th aluminum.
Nice! I wanna attempt it on the LR2, but not even sure where to start.
Honestly I was in a rush, had 8 hours before the school shut down due to Covid, and I rushed in to cut them. I did a quick stress analysis on the part comparing 1/2 wood and 1/8 Aluminum. Looked like it’d work and I just cut em. Doing the math by hand and with some other folks here 1/4 would have been a better thickness.
I assumed a few things from looking at people’s table designs, and ended up making my table a bit too thick. So right now, my table is kind of a hack. I’ll replace the aluminum 1/8ths either with aluminum or wood, because I’ll need em longer.
How about just using a router to cut a rabbet in the lower edge of the 2x’s to clear the lower Z tube supports?
Feel free to mentor me… virtually…
Nice robot madgrixxle!
Team 4160’s robot makes the motor stall sound when it’s low on battery:
As for virtual mentoring:
That’s pretty much the 4 things I try to teach the kids 
and they are universal life lessons.
i hope you tell them that this does not apply to car accidents XD
