Thank you Branson, for getting me moving with my articulated support arm project.
I have never felt secure about having the pendant dangling from the small hook. It's either in the way, out of reach, or hard to read.
While my version is not bomb proof, I think it'll meet my needs.
Moving the pendant from one side of the cnc to the other without needing a real long arm was easily solved. I used the the 2X4 horizontal beam on the stand to attach the arm mount. This way I can slide the mount from one side to the other.
I also designed a simple way to hold the pendant securely to the arm. I made a holder that the pendant could slide into.
I'll attach pictures and save myself a thousand words:
I'll also attach crv files if anyone is interested...
