Hello all,
I have been fighting with my router to cut acrylic for about a week now. Today I finally got it to pocket and cut out shapes by trying different bits and all of a sudden my spindle vibrated for a second or two while cotouring and the shaft bent.
I have a 60 x 60" Chinese laser engraver which turns out does not engrave/cuts clear materials. So I bought a router attachment for it from the seller in hopes it would solve the problem. It's been nothing but headaches with this thing up until this point. Does anyone know of a good spindle I can put on it to give it another chance? The spindle is 50mm wide where it mounts. Or any advice or other approaches for cutting/pocketing acrylic (the only thing I will be using the machine for).
Thank you
