RFQ - custom 43mm spindle mount

[HankMcSpank]

Guys, I've just ordered a small CNC machine from Asia (http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Panther-21...item35b56aeb53) & now need a spindle mount to affix my Proxxon BFW40/e to it ( http://ebay.bzt-cnc.de/sc/zubehoer/proxxon/bild1.jpg ...this Proxxon spindle has a 43mm collar.

Here's the overall vibe of what I'm thinking...




(I've omitted the clamping aspect...as I'm figuring who ever is confident enough to quote me will also be confident enough to put their own clamping arrangment in place! The key thing is those m5 holes - they've got to be bang on (71mm between centres - here's the manafacturer's Z plane mounting plate drawing - http://www.motor-star.com/Z%20AXIS%2...LE%20-%201.jpg ).

Re spindle mount thickness...hmm, difficult, my spindle is quite chunky at 2kg (far too big for such a little machine really), so I don't want a *huge* amount of weight attributed to the mounts alone (although I'm conscious of the heatsinking 'win' a larger mount brings) ...but it'll probably need to be something 25mm thick?

Anyway, my 'first stab' DXF file is attached which has all the dimensions.

PM me if interested....don't spend overly long ...a ballpark figure via PM would be nice to kick this off! (also don't be offended if I baulk - I was made redundant in June - living off my savings - no benefits for Hank! - & I'm presently try to dig myself out of this mess by getting some piddly little products to market! I can actually mill my own mount out of mdf or acrylic, but would rather have Ali)
