AI summary
Jay completes a redesigned segmented CNC spoilboard/horizontal table that swaps in cheaper hardware while increasing capability, and recounts a hectic stretch—complete with logs and a flood—that threw off his schedule.
What matters most to you in a spoilboard/workholding setup—cost savings, modularity, or clamping flexibility—and how do you plan for unexpected shop disruptions like severe weather?
Segmented Spoilboard, with a side of logs and a flood..
The CNC spoilboard is done. Well, the horizontal table. It’s a similar but much different design than the last one. Less expensive hardware, more capability. Of course, a few scheduling curveballs. Unexpected events are becoming more expected..
