Hi To All

Peter,

This is the new design (I am told), they've been advertising them for a couple of months, its the Soba version of a Vertex. Mounting a stepper will be very easy, I've already stripped it down to measure up and theres no problem I can see unless I'm being very stupid.

Hi Irving
Had a quick look on chronus - it certainly looks different to the one I got.
Are you going to fit thrust bearings or rely on as is.

Just had another look and they are still doing my one SOBA 4" Rotary Table HV4 Type I wasnt that impressed as to quality etc

fit a single thrust bearing where the handle fits on the shaft...

lets not hijack John's thread any further... I'll start a new thread shortly with some pics I have just taken...

Hijack away it's all very relevant and could save me loads of grief!
A bit off subject but I want to fit a bearing and thrust washers and cage bearing to my Myford S7 PCF but 9/16" seems to be an awkward size!
Thanks for all the help I have my head around the Electronic side it's just the mechanical aproach?

John.

Deleted the double post for you John...

Simply Bearings have needle thrust washers in 9/16 (14.28mm) sizes

Thanks for the info I will do an order I can't understand whay the washers are more money than the thrust bearings?

John.
