Dust suction
09/02/2015 at 18:07 • 0 commentsIt´s been a while since my last log entry. I had a lot of work with different CNC projects. During this time the router had blow out a lot of dust in my workshop. Of course I have a "manual dust suction" with a vacuum cleaner but this works not good enough.
So I decided to upgrade my router with an automatic dust suction which is always available!
