Torch hose support 5x10 table

Post by tannje3 »

Built a 5x10 table trying to figure out what to do with torch hose as far as support, any ideas or pictures out here. I don't want it with the control wires. Looking for above the table, in the air type ideas. Thank you.

Here is how I did that, boom in the center of one side and a swivel setup at the end that causes the boom to swivel as needed on the larger table. A shorter table does not need this swivel at the end. I also support the cable above the Z motor so Z movement is easier, not effected by the cable movements. I use carabinas to hold the cable for easy removal, as my table doubles as a router table. Power and vacuum hose are attached to the boom for that use.
