    I found a (bad) pic of the motor mounts, I ditched those flexible couplings as soon as I actually tried to use the machine. Having cutting problem, they were the first thing I replaced.

ID:	27417 you can see the mounts better.

    I want to flip the motor mount upside down, then mount the motor under the machine. The motor mount has 4 mounting holes which align with 4590 aluminium track. I can slide the mount left and right to tension the belt before bolting down with T nuts.

    Motor mount is 10mm thick aluminium plate NOT ecocast.

    I have the machine in a van so undersling the motors will create me a little more space and protect the motors.

    I have bolted an extra piece of 4590 behind the machine to space it off the ply.

    That groove isn't from the machine but it does line up perfectly LOL.
