Now thats an impressive little beastie :D
what are you going to use as a spindle?

Never ceases to amaze me what people build in their sheds. Best hobby I ever got into.
NICE JOB MVCAT!
Jeff.
Thanks for all your positive feedbacks.In the matter of the spindle,I'm not going to use anything large in first setup,one dc motor 200w3350rpm and a spindle I made myself.Spindle housing of steel with small head(one collet diameter;have few pieces of these,3,4,5,6,8 holes),I have some angular bearings(7201C),and I think it will be good for the first run.Later,I have in mind spindle with morse 3,ER20 collet chuck,which I also plan to do myself,and servo motor with VFD.:beer:
Jeff, not yet... just pressures of work and going through the pain of a new kitchen and bathroom thats already 4 weeks overrunning, so little time for hobbies!Quote:
