You mean this thread: Spindle weight too much?

@ktw101

I ordered the 80mm mount and then ordered the 110v 2.2kw HUANYANG spindle. The weight of the spindle is around 18 lbs. Now I’m worried that it might be too heavy for the stepper motors.

@OnefinityCNC

Works fine on either x-35 or x-50 (better with x-50)

What means “chap”?
