That's fun! Looking good! Regards, Matthew |

Very nice! When you'll have tested and adjusted it would you publish a bit of info how flat surface it produces. It looks pretty good. Pekka |

I will do my best but I don't have much equipment to measure it accurately the best I could do would be to lay some paint on the granite chopping board I nicked of the wife and show the results of that. |

I am fairly happy with the left/right movement now and its time to turn my thoughts to the back/forward which for the sake of less typing I will now call X and Y. I have stripped down a old 9.6V drill a friend gave me and salvaged the motor and gearbox. Then I stripp down the gearbox and sawed the shaft shorter before facing it off, drilling and tapping the center for a m6 screw. Next I made the mount for it from a block of aluminium, still have to drill and tap the block to mount it on machine but will do that after I work out the rest of the mechanism. |

Had to gather together some of the bits I threw away as I forgot to take the torque limiter mechanism into account, I could have just locked the mechanism but thought if I could find the bits it would be a handy function. So found them and installed them, then mounted the setup on the table. Only problem now is that I am getting a bit fixated on this and am neglecting to do the jobs I should be doing, example I have had a replacement wheel arch for the camper for nearly a month now and not got it on the vehicle yet oh well :Doh: |
