The file 'Makita RT0701 / RT0700 Tool Holder And Cord Guide For MPCNC 3D Printer Model' is (stl,f3d) file type, size is 4.5MB.

Summary

This tool holder is to mount the Makita RT070X compact trim router to the standard mounting plate of the popular Allted MPCNC. I looked through several existing mounts for these Makita routers and then designed this mount with some of what I saw to be the best features and few additional tweaks I thought would make it work best.

Features:

  • Designed to mount very close to the gantry for rigidity
  • Minimal loss of X/Y range
  • Easy access to the locking button for tool changes
  • Router airflow directed away from work
  • Integrated dust collection option
  • Accepts standard 1-1/4" vacuum hose (31.75mm)
  • Magnetically attached dust plate
  • Standard mount options to quickly attach pens or lasers without full tool mount change

Parts Required

  • 6-32 screws and locking nuts
  • 1mmx10mm magnets ( I am only using 4 top / 4 bottom standard refrigerator magnets but the design will accept more)
  • 20 gauge or heavier vinyl for dust plate (Note I trimmed the vinyl shorter than it shows in the picture)
  • 4-40 screws to attach vinyl directly into the dust plate holes

Some holders that can be used with the built in mounts:

The Fusion360 design files have been attached for anyone interested in making further tweaks.
