I bought direct from Bergerda. Shipping was an arm and a leg since they would only use FedEx. Even with shipping it was cheaper than EBAY. Here's one of the HP_UHU

Thanks John . So is there a IO group for these servo motors ? I've seen ones that were closer to my reality over on Aliexpress but I'm pretty tight with what $ I have & have hears so

This process has been around for decades. We used it for building up worn/damaged ship's machinery shafts before grinding back to size. Skilly

A friend of mine used to have one from BusyBee like that. He liked it. We were just discussing servo motor drives on the HP_UHU group a few days ago. The UHU was an Atmel micro controller run

Thanks Mike , it rings a bell now .         animal

Sounds like a interesting setup . I have a import from KBC tools probably from the mid to late 80 , Similar to this puppy but mine is none

My mill is equivalent to the Grizzly G3616. https://www.grizzly.com/products/grizzly-vertical-mill/g3616 It had this huge cast iron 2HP single phase spindle motor with a max spindle speed of 2950

Jack , sounds like you had the pleasure of working in a pretty darn interesting place . The Delta/Rockwell or HF surface grinder size would be the one that I'm after . I'm just looking

John are you running your mill with a servo motor ? What flavor is your mill ? thanks animal On 7/30/2022 10:20 PM, John Dammeyer wrote:

I converted a bench top tool and cutter grinder to a surface grinder that looks very similar to these plans. It was not hard to do and it is accurate to a few 10ths, which is good enough for

Mike, only you can know what you want or need. I've got a couple of carbide tipped centers that I got in the early days of my lathe ownership, both beat to crap. I want to fix them. I want to be able

I have a Delta Rockwell surface grinder. It is truly a great machine for a hobbyist. I live in the Detroit area and worked in automotive tool and die stuff for many years. I spent quite a

I'm a hobbyist. Now you know one who regularly turns between centers. My mill spindle pulley is tapered on the inside. I wanted a different pulley with only two steps and room for an encoder

I've seen a few of those Delta/Rockwells for sale on my semi local CL . They look like pretty capable machines , but their way out of my price range . I live @ a hr from any large town

Most of the hobbyist I know don't turn between centers , it's always a 3 jaw & live center . When I mention dogs & faceplates most folks I know say that stuff is for wood lathes . (

They do very different things. Morse taper accessories, for example, including centers, are best finished with a tool post grinder, where a surface grinder is best for things like 1-2-3 blocks, gibs
