Hi brettmansdorf
That's something like getting a outboard motor for a boat and then making a boat to use the motor...
It can be done but it's not going to be cheap..or easy
Think of what you are wanting to do, just route some wood..and then once the bits wear out, then what ?, then you will have a new boat anchor..
Are you sure they are router bits or mill end tools ?

I know almost nothing of the CNC machines - and simply want the ability to utilize these bits. I've had the suggestion of getting a shaper table and having a custom fitted (fabricated) conversion for a CNC 3/4" collet - but that includes buying a shaper and then having the piece customized - then spinning the bits below their normal speed... Lots of hoops to jump through.
If I'm out of my mind... Just let me know.
thanx as always. |
