It has turned out very well Tim, well done.

But you have forgotten one thing.

You don't say if it works or not.

I assume because you have done such a good job, it does.

Oops,  :doh: Yes, it works just fine. Soo much quieter and smoother.

I also forgot to mention that I also had to reverse the motor wiring (but not the earth, obviously) as now the motor needs to run in the opposite direction.

Edit: I've since realised that there is no need to reverse the motor's direction with this belt drive conversion




My next project is to tram the mill up as best as poss, and to allign the mill head with the z-axis (which it currently is not alligned that well).

So yet more piccies will be on their way.


Thanks for looking,

Tim

bogstandard:
Tim,

Maybe you should knock up one of these.

Tramming then becomes a joy rather than a PITA.
