Clamping and spoilboard options, and vacuum-table effectiveness for routing 1/2" UHMW with a 3HP router AirWeights Table 24x24

Hello, I have a 3 Hp router and cut 1/2" uhmw plastic. Currently clamping. Clamps are usually in the way. Some parts require 2 setups to complete with clamps. Also, the plastic waste is not always 100% removed with dust control which can be messy. Wondering if this affects your vacuum table? Lastly, what about spoil board recommendations if any? Please advise and thank you, Wayne

Dear Wayne,

Any time you experience less than 100% removal of the material from your table, it would slightly affect the capability and effectiveness of your vacuum table. We have not had this issue with this AirWeights system which is a good thing :)

For spoilboards, we recommend and use 3/4" plywood as a good and nice thickness spoilboard.

Thanks,

Kevin
