Description
This is a mounting kit for a RPM Display on my MASLOW CNC. It attaches to the Z motor mount by NED on the Bosch POF1200 Router. (https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2756597)
The RPM display is based on a Arduino Nano and I followed these great instructions to build it.

The lids may need some light sanding to fit depending on your printer, The display was hot glued using the pins for alignment. Once all build, i glued the lids in place with some CA and glued the whole thing to the side of the z motor mount.
I double sided taped the curved sections to the router and then used M3 bolts and insert nuts to attach the sensor part allowing it to adjust up and down as needed.
A video of it up and running can be found here:
