Hello Have anyone tried this approach to mounting an 43mm spindle, AMD/Kress etc? It’s essentially just a colletring with ID=43mm and OD=80, clamped in the Onefinity 80mm mount. Terje [onefinity_spindle_holder] [onefinity_spindle_holder_cut1] [onefinity_spindle_holder_top] [onefinity_spind…

Hey Bill, [image] Machinist: Ha! I knew you’d come through! :sunglasses: just coincidence that I saw your posting just when you posted it :slight_smile: . I also have to leave right now (until later). What I do is just eagerly use the bookmarks functionality of the forum :slight_smile: With…

Going the other direction here is an 89mm 3d printed bracket I’ve been putting through its paces. 1/2” collet, 2.25hp and actually quieter than ye olde makita and no VFD. It is pushed out from the linear rails to clear the Z stepper and for sure rigidity takes a hit but I’ve been making some deep pa…

So I had a go at a clean build, from the center of linear rod’s to center of spindle would be 74mm, the house is 63mm long. It should be very easy to make, and the bearing blocks come in many different sizes and versions. Now I just need to order my machine, I’ve landed on the Machinist version aft…

Early on in my rebuild I had similar thoughts but when I did the measurements I found that these bearing blocks did not have enough clearance (centre of rod to back plate of Z assembly). Also, finding an effective way of attaching the Z axis ball screw nut was problematic.

I didn’t either :expressionless: I just wanted to alert you before you went too far with purchases to support this particular solution.

I took a quick look, there seems to be room, but one may have to custom make a nut bracket. There are also more narrower linear rails housings and more shallow types. I don’t know how fare back one can go either. This is a 12mm ball screw from THK. [Pillow Block Linear Ball Bearing ass back] [Pil…

I couldn’t find any that fit - 18.5 mm from centre if 16 mm shaft to the back plate is all the room there is. If you have found one that can fit that (I would want it as long as possible to counter the leverage, and the best quality/tolerance you can find) then all should be good.

Ok, I understand very tight, from center to back now is 19.5mm to backside of block and 23,2mm to arc on nut, but nut can be rotated 90 degree to gain some dept. I just had some fun tonight, but maybe I can inspire someone, this is doable I think! Have a good night [Pillow Block Linear Ball Bear…

Okay, never easy I guess. I don’t have the full picture without the machine.

Is a tangential oscillation knife possible with Elite forman?
