I have almost finished putting my ShopBot together a PRS Standard 48x96, I started Thursday afternoon. I am to the point of hooking the wires to the control box. I had to modify my wire hoop (the clear plastic thing that carries the wire above the X car). It was hitting my ceiling so I cut 6" off each end and re-drilled the holes.
The problem is I have a couple obstructions that will still hit the hoop when the YZ car is on one side and it pushes the hoop up to the ceiling. If I were to turn the machine 180* it would work perfect and miss all the obstructions.
My shop floor is not level so to level the machine one corner is about 1.5" higher than the one diagonally from it. If I got 4 guys would it hurt to turn the machine and just re-level it? I would hate to think about disassembling it at this stage to rotate it. I thought I had a good plan when I put it together but now I think the original plan is not so good.
