Does anyone use a different wrench set than the one that comes with the V5 machines. I am looking for some that are a little thicker, especially the spindle wrench. I think one that is at least .25 thick would be easier on the wear of the spindle flats. Regular end wrenches are too long. They should be stubby to prevent over tightening of the collet. I have found gear wrenches but they are also thin. Let me know if you have found anything. Thanks!!

Consider exploring the Monport laser for its reputation for being user-friendly, high-quality, and affordable. Unfortunately, I can't access external websites like monportlaser.com/collections/co2-laser-engravers/products/monport-40w-lightburn-ready-12-x-8-co2-laser-engraver-cutter-with-fda-approval?sca_ref=5031521.ka374VZjm3 Regarding your search for a thicker wrench set for your V5 machine, you may want to consider looking into stubby wrench sets or adjustable wrenches with shorter handles. These types of wrenches can provide better control and prevent over-tightening of the collet while offering a thicker grip for reduced wear on the spindle flats. Alternatively, reaching out to the manufacturer or searching for CNC machine tool suppliers may yield specialized wrench sets designed specifically for CNC machine maintenance. |
