Hi Everyone.
I’m new to the forum but now that I have ordered a 48 x 48 Foremen Eleat I see that it isn’t a turnkey system. It appears I need a OCW component. What else am I missing that I will need? Do the drag chains come with the unit? Any help would be greatly appreciated. I also ordered a touch probe and tool setter.
thanks
My input, I would build a table, You also need a router or spindle, and some bits, I would get a 1/4 EM
and some 1/8" EM and some v carve bits to start. I also got the Touch plate, and tool setter.
If you go the spindle then you also need a VFD. After I moved away from a router (about 2 mins)
i ordered a water cool spindle and I will never look back…
To me if you pay the money for a Foreman elite then do a spindle.

Drag chains are all included and a good starting point…
Thanks for the response. I plan on buying a 80 mm water cooled spindle which includes a vfd… I am using Vetric Pro and have trying to learn it for the past year. I’ve watched hundreds of YT vids about programming and cnc projects. Now I got to make room in garage for table which I still have to build. But I am getting into this exciting part of wood working. I’ve also taken KYLE ELY’s course. I’m on a mission!
