I’ve got the 80mm spindle along with the Onefinity mount for it. The first thing I noticed is that the spindle is a LOT heavier than the Makita router. Should the Z-axis stepper motor be upgraded or is it capable of handling that extra weight without a problem?
I have been on the forum for quite some time and do not recall seeing any concerns from spindle owners about the stepper motor being an issue with the added mass. I am sure others will share their real-life experiences soon.
I had the same concern. I asked the forum
80mm spindle and VFD choices - #53 by AndyP.
I bought and i stalled a 2.2kw 220v spindle (air cooled).
No problems that i can detect.
