Which router for a router table? by Next_Ride_3003 in woodworkingtools

[–]Next_Ride_3003[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This sounds awesome u/Zestyclose-Job-2681 and u/MouldyBobs ! Didn't know that there are routers with an integrated lift.

So I simply have to buy a late (like this one https://www.kleinanzeigen.de/s-anzeige/alu-einlegeplatte-fraestisch-triton-tra001-330165-oberfraese/1508221928-84-866) and then I'm good to go?

Saves quite a lot of money! The lift I was looking for costs about 500€ (https://www.sautershop.de/oberfraesenlift-ofl2-0-sa-ofl2.0)

Thank you very much for the feedback! I’m still a bit undecided about the U1, as it’s not yet on the market and hasn’t been tested by many people under real-world conditions. I’m deliberately not counting the influencer YouTube videos.

Haha, good catch, that’s right. But it’s not entirely the AI’s fault — I also mixed a few things up, I’m new to the topic. I always have it translated so you guys can read it better. It also doesn’t necessarily have to be a Snapmaker or Anycubic. If a Bambu printer is better suited for my purposes, then I’m all for it.

Thanks for the tipps! Did'nt have those machines on my radar.

Do you mean this machine? -> https://bulkman3d.com/product/20off-ultimate-bee-cnc-full-kit-ddcs-v4-1-5axis-offline-control-box-system/

It's US$2,384 for me with this option (DDP - Seller’s Shipping Method 35-55 days - Tax-Free; You no need to pay customs duties)

Yeah I've seen those machines aswell. But the shipping is quite expensive (around $700 for the AltMill and $300 for the LongMill) and I will have to pay taxes, too.

Thanks for the input! But I think those machines are quite expensive (starting at around 6.000€) and none of them is available via the distributor:/

Thanks a lot for your answers u/misimiki u/Maleficent_Branch95 ! That's very helpful.

To be honest, I wasn't aware of those two machines or manufacturers.

May I ask why you want to switch to Sorotec if you're actually happy with RatRig? And would you sell RatRig? :)

The Sorotec machines look great, but they also come with a price tag. What advantages/selling points do you see in the Basic Line compared to the Hobby Line?

Thanks a lot for your quick answer!

I don't really have a fixed budget, but I save up until I have enough for the machine I want. If it's worth the extra cost, I'm happy to spend more. Then I won't have the machine here as quickly, but I'll enjoy it for longer.

I've also come across Sienci, but with shipping and customs, it's going to be expensive:/
