Clamps

Since the last post, I've gotten the ends of the CNC bolted to the lower torsion box. I just glued on the top layer of that torsion box and am now waiting for it to dry. I always knew that you could never have enough clamps, but today I learned this firsthand. There weren't enough clamps to hold down the top of the torsion box. We had to use the heaviest things we could find in the shed to weigh the top down.

Putting the glue on.

Weighing down the top panel.

All I have left to do is to attach the upper torsion box, cutting surface, and the router.

I also was able to get some cheap plastic from TAP Plastic's scraps. The bottom-most piece is 8.5 inches by 11 inches.

Seven decently sized pieces of plastic for $7.00.
