Arrow of Light

 I milled out some arrow of light plaques

I used easel for the drawings, with a depth per pass of .05 inches and a 72 inches/minute feed and RPMs of 5000 and 8000. The material was glued up oak.

I noticed when the spindle moves along the X-axis it jerks, and started looking around for loose parts. I eventually figured out that the screw attaching the MakerRail to the gantry was loose and the whole assembly could shift a little bit. We'll see if that tightens things up for the next run.
