Thanks for bringing this back -- I hadn't read it first time up -- definitely of interest, and glad to see you're back on it. :thumbup: :beer: |

I cut the plate after centering on a square plate using the Circle diameter function on the DRO (including the 4 holes in the corners) While I had the setup, I used the SX3 tapping feature to cut the threads. And the complete kit shown here including the flange from a Vertex 6" rotary table that the plate mounts to. The keyed adapter (first time using a broach) And the other end and mounted it all up This makes more sense when you look at the rotary table And the Gecko Stepper driver I am using and the LCD display So currently key supported features are: 1. Divide a specific number of divisions in a circle 2. Divide a specific angle (in degrees, minute, seconds entered by the user 3. Jog - Turn the table (left or right) while finger is on the left/right buttons 4. Jog - Single step (left or right) based on a user specified angle (default 0.5 degrees or 30 minutes) 5. Continuous turning - turn the table continuously in the current angle (left or right) until the SELECT button is pressed |
