So here is the router mostly assembled:The assembly seems quite rigid so I don't think chatter will be an issue in wood or plastics. A couple of other notes on machine design. First, the stepper motors for the Y axis is attached directly to the leadscrew with a rigid coupler. This means the bearing in the stepper will have to carry the full axial and radial loads from moving the table. Probably not an issue on this small machine, but larger routers have separate bearing assemblies to carry the leadscrew loads. The other thing is, there are no machined ends on the lead screws. This means that the coupler, pulleys, all the knobs, and shaft collars use set screws tightened directly against the threaded rod. Probably not a problem but seems kind of inelegant.Only other problem is I seem to have a lot of screws and other unidentified fastener pieces left over. Going to have to go back over the assembly pictures and see what I've missed. Unfortunately, the assembly pictures are for an earlier version machine, so I don't know how helpful they'll be.Chuck
