Warco Major CNC build log

[Robin Hewitt]

Pic 1: Cheeks put in with a couple of bolts. Needed a bit of extra removing from the left cheek because the casting was far from straight. Heavy application of the angle grinder at the bottom before the ball screw bearing plate would slide home, had to cut out an extra 7.5mm

Pic 2: Ball screw fitted, view from the side. This is as close as you can get the ballscrew to the quill. Hence requirement for honking plate.

Pic 3: Pile of bits removed, Irvings' if he wants 'em

Should have taken a front view with the ballscrew installed. Maybe next time.

Next I have to relieve the cheeks a tadge so I can fit the motor plate, bit of a poor measurement there.

Then make a false honking plate, cut the pulleys and wire it up so so I can make a real honking plate
