Re: Help with CNC "router"

So, if we were to mount a spindle on the "Y" which is really the Z in the current orientation, we'd get very limited travel.

But what if we turned the whole thing over, and hung the Z down below it? We'd still geometrically get the same travel, but do these need to be run in the orientation they were designed for?
