Sanding fixture for the Mechmate
I built a sanding fixture to mount a Bosch electric random orbit sander on my Mechmate. Takes about a minute to install.
It is powered by the g8 command in mach 3 so it turns on and off by itself....

Still making sawdust
Doing more work for my ukuleles on the Mechmate. I sure am glad I have it. It doesn't sit quiet very often.

Seems to be a pretty nice product. I like the recoil feature.

Loving the dust shoe.
I created a vacuum program to run between sheets to pick up the sawdust that was packed in the grooves. Runs in about 3 minutes. Faster than grabbing a small hose.

Lots of use is correct.
When we get into the new home we will even get dust collection hooked up. I won't be able to use it for dovetails but that's OK.
It's time to get a 3d program so I can cut...

Moving time
We are moving to a new location. Only about 300 ft from our current building but still takes some rigging to get it done. To get the Mechmate out of our current building it needs to go on it's side...

Ukuleles on the Mechmate
Here is a little video of the completed ukes that I am crafting on my Mechmate.
Now I need to figure out how to do the necks.

George has paid for himself!!
It's been just under 4 months and the MM has paid for itself.
It is kept busy about 3 days a week cutting sheet goods and doing dovetailing for drawers.
I am also cutting out bodies for ukuleles....
