I plan to build a vacuum table that will also serve as the waste board. I’ve read the assembly info, and I’m planning on making the top 1000x1000, with an overhang wide enough to bolt the substructure extrusion to.
I considered making it oversized, to allow for expansion of the makerslides to say a 1000x1500, but only drill holes now for the 750x750 work surface. Everywhere I read people talk about wiring having very little length to maneuver the x-controller around.
Questions:
Is it possible to order the machine with a couple extra feet of cabling?
Anyone built the vacuum table, and have specific advice on pitfalls to avoid?
Anything I can do now to make an eventual machine expansion less of a headache later?
