This video tells you how to install a spindle on your CNC router. In this video, we are installing a spindle on the Longmill MK2 from PwnCNC (link to their website below).

Welcome to our comprehensive step-by-step guide on upgrading your CNC router with a high-performance spindle! If you're considering switching from a trim router to a spindle, in this video, we're walking you through the entire process of installing a spindle on the LongMill MK2 CNC router. In this case, we are installing a water-cooled spindle as opposed to an air-cooled spindle.

Spindle kits from PwnCNC are available for Onefinity, Longmill, Millright, Shapeoko, CNC4Newbies, Xcarve and a few other CNC routers

The only difference between air and water-cooled spindles is the noise they put out.
