I’m wondering if I could get your help on suggestions for the ultimate Forman build.
I will be doing lots of laser and 3D relief projects in a fairly small shop. I want to get this forums users suggestions on what they think the best or ultimate build for a foreman would be. So far these are my thoughts:
-Onefinity foreman elite
-j tech 24w laser with air assist
-water cooled spindle (not sure voltage I’d like one that works with 110v)
-quick change spoilboard (below)
-folding table
-(need bit recommendations)
-vcarve pro/carveco maker+
I will also be doing a lot of tiling so if anyone has a rock solid solution for that I’d be very interested in hearing about it.
Note that in the U.S., many people have split-phase electricity (two 120 V phases shifted by 180°) which means even if they seem to have only 120 V outlets (which is between one hot and neutral) they usually have 240 V in their homes (between two hots of different phases) so an electrician can easily install a circuit with a 240 V outlet and circuit breaker.
A little detail I learned… extension cords, even 220, are more readily available for lower amperage’s also - IF your table is movable and you want one.
The price of copper nowadays… holy smokes, Lowes had their 250 foot locked down.
