What an amazing thing.

Well, while I wait for parts. Thanks to Ryan for quick shipping. I now have 2 routers so I can just trade them out and change brushes when I get around to it.

Speed control for the router mounted in the back of the cabinet.

Vacuum Setup - 1954 Electolux on another speed control, it had to much suck. Rebuilt with new bearings and brushes. Speed control runs at close to minimum speed. Very little dust even makes it to the vacuum. Dust Cyclone https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2829268 works excellent.

Those started off as some pretty amazing carvings. I am sure it was heartbreaking to see them get messed up.

Thanks
