DIY Nema23 Motor Mounts

[Lee Roberts]

I have just found some more pic’s of my motor mount fixed to my machine, (Rockcliff) here you can see how I went about fixing them to the machine.



and fixed to the machine:





Ok the pic below shows the motor and mount fixed to the machine, my lead screw isn’t in its correct position and that’s why it’s not lining up with the motor shaft (I was fiddling about, just wanted to test how things would look).



You may also notice that the motor isn’t fixed on with anything, i.e. I haven’t put any nuts on. This isn't permanent obviously and of course I will fix the motor with nuts and washers, I was just test fitting everything.

Also shows you how strong the motor mount is, it’s not even flexing with the weight of the motor!

The pic below shows the lead screw in the correct position and nicely lined up with the motor shaft awaiting a coupler!



GO ON HAVE AGO!
