Tossed the factory stuff, it was all junk. Made my own B drive.
Is that a water cooled spindle?

Wasn't new, cheapo 2 bearing motor, 120 volt, pretty well used up in 20
hours. now a water cooled
4 bearing, could be better balanced but is holding up well at around 300
hours so far. Its
carved it own very accurate chuck wrenches out of 1/2" alu, quite a few
pcb's and 9 of
those screws at 2 or 3 days each.
You can see its latest project on my web page in the sig, it carved
those wooden
screws there are pix of there, with code I wrote.
Nice.
Thank you.
Take care and stay well, John.
Cheers, Gene Heskett.
