Description
I have a new Maslow CNC that uses a Ridgid 2200 router but wanted a way to align it without having to cut up a bunch of wood. So I designed this small insert that fits the 1/2 collet with a spring loaded ball point pen. Just slide it in, snip the excess of the pen with some side cutters and mount it in your router. I suggest taping paper in the corner and then zeroing out your Z axis. Now you should get perfect pen marks where the cuts should be. This same tool could be used for any 1/2 in collet so you can use this for other router based CNCs or maybe something else!
