I want to make manual editions of these:

https://www.woodshopnews.com/news/woodpeckers-acquires-the-multi-router

I can't afford to buy them because I had to retire early from working due to Cancers and a Degenerative bone disease. I have been collecting materials from dumpsters. My wife says our garage looks like Sanford and Son.
I remember Sanford and Son. Fred was always saying that he was having the 'big' one while clutching his chest.

I don't think you can build a precision tool like that out of scrap you found... but I'd love to be wrong!

If you do make it, please take pictures.

I took pictures on my phone which got deleted by my brother in law. He borrowed the manual CNC Machine and sold it to a neighbor who was moving.
