Where is your PC Router power cord? Did you put it in the cable cat track or did you wire tie it out of the way? Mine is just hanging over the side of the machine and I would like to tidy it up. If you put it in the cat track how did you do it? I can't seem to find a way of threading the plug through it.

Hello Tim,
I can't help with your problem but someone will.
You may remember my wife and I taught at Ridgedale for several years. Say hi to your family and I'm glad your business is going well

The wire track links pop open for wire installation. You will want to separate the communication wiring from power wires.

Tim - Be careful popping open the lids to the wire track. It is easy to break them. I don't have a buddy, but I use a lot of wire tracks in my "real" job. Some types only open from one side. Call Shopbot and ask them if you are not sure.

Thanks for the help guys.

Hi Wendel, Mary said to say hi to Wendy-Loo. I wish you were still up here so I could pick your brain ;)

Hi Randall,
Just getting my feet wet. Spent 16 HOURS cutting a fingerboard radius today... arrrrgh! The BOT nearly became a boat anchor ;(

Yeah, 3D work can be a bit challenging until you tune in the values and the cut time drops dramatically.

Hang in there. It is worth the journey.
