Cheap milling machine spindle - BT30-ER20, air powered draw bar + Tear Down!

Well there is no going back now! The CAD was finalised and the step files sent over to JLCCNC for machining. They were impressed enough to sponsor me for some of the machined parts so feel free to have a look at their website using the link in the description box on YT, or click the link here: https://jlccnc.com/?from=routercnc
I've also put links to the GrabCAD site for the CAD model, and links to the GitHub site where I will add the code as it evolves.

Whilst we wait for them to be machined and delivered I thought I would make the control boxes. Enjoy!

The machined parts have arrived from JLCCNC - time to see if I've made any mistakes in the CAD!

Time to move onto the main head assembly and tear down the drill press to recover the column. Starting to take shape now.

Time to get some movement. In this episode we get the ballnut bracket machined, set up the 2005 ballscrew, and the head moving. Enjoy!
