I prefer a very clean look, which is why I planned to put the machine vertically in the middle of the left panel and run all cabling straight down and under the table where I can coil up extra length nicely. Of course keeping data separate from power cords. That birds nest is driving me insane, but it’s just for testing right now.
I will have to disassemble everything in ~8 months when we move to the N. Austin area after I retire from USAF. Hopefully I’ll have a big garage or a nice workshop. Then I can do a final assembly, seal up the edges, install a dust collection system etc.
My plans are to install a dust collection adapter right in the center of the top panel so I’ll have just enough hose in the cabinet to cover the routers full travel. I plan to use a smaller diameter hose. Eventually I’ll upgrade to a spindle after I’ve got many hours of experience and I have 220v circuit.
