Has anyone built a lathe specifically for pool cues? If so plese let me know. i am thinking of building a 4 axis unit and an looking for someone...
Is it possible to use two mounting plates on a c beam actuator, on on top and a second on the bottom. Locked together so if one moves so does the...
I do appreciate all your assistance. I can not use "lathe spindle" as a spindle, as i need to cut pockets in the product as well as cut inlays...
Just a thought. If instead of using two complete actuators as the bottom slide could I use just 1 motor and a belt system to sync the actuators?...
WOW> it like learning another language.... What does "but you'd split the STP/DIR/ENA signals from the controller" mean? Having a hard time...
Best i can describe it is similar to the workbee 1050. However, the two side actuators will be 1500mm, the center table will be 1pc 1500mm Cbeam....
The only diagrams I have are hand drawn and i am a lousy artist. Is there some type of program or excel add on to simplify the drawings?
the build will have x/y/z and then the rotary axis. But the only way I could see to move the x axis [i think that's right] was to move the whole...
Almost ready to pull the trigger on my first build. Figured out what components are needed. But I am unclear about the electronics / software....
I tried to view the 3d model but it wont run on my pc. Downloaded the file and don't have what to view it with. I will try again later from home....
So when I see the travel on an actuator state 35". Does that mean that if I mount a router on the plate the effective cutting will travel 35"or...
Peter, I considered that but as I do not have hands on I was unsure if there was sufficient overlap on the plate to do so.
I would like to create a variation on the workbee. I plan to use two c-beam actuators [pre-assembled] for the side rails, and a third for the...
thanks
Actually that is almost the same thing I had in mind. Sorry said i was new. So this will stay Put? No need of mechanical lock down? [ATTACH]
I am planing a 4 axis lathe design with Nema 23 motors. The ones that come with the c-beam actuator's. So if i understand this correctly, short...
I have completed the mechanical design of what I want to build. However I need guidance on the electrical control portion. I am confused as to...
I guess what I am doing is quite similar to fluting. I am unsure as to weather I understand the answers. Will the stepper motor be able to hold...
So I will be routing a deep pattern into a round object [like a police baton]. I will need to make multiple cuts to achieve the depth I require....
I see I wrote 90 degree plate, I was looking actually lookin at the t joining plate, no dimension is given there. I assume there the same though....
