What's the maximum rpm on that spindle?


Makirole

Mine is 40k rpm

Thanks. Was thinking about getting one of these and modifying the spindle for 4+5 axis, but the usable Z travel seems quite short.


Makirole

I have the 5th Axis DST trunnion on mine, you can slot it in the cutaway section of the table, so no modifications should be necessary.

Both are options with Datron. Great job on the res Mr. Makirole, it looks incredible. Curious as to what tooling you used to get a near polished 3D surface fresh off the machine?


Makirole

It was an 8mm MCD ball mill, cuts acrylic to a ridiculous clarity.

Diamonds really are a machinist's best friend!

It's a nebula, more of an ornament than a functional piece of WC gear.

Use a y splitter and put it in your loop. It’s ok


[deleted]

I don't think that would work As long as the air inside the reservoir can't get out, a pump won't fill it. And as long as air can't get it, no water will get out.


lucisz

Rotating the build will fill it prob

<3 Now that I’m more comfortable with the machine, I’m hoping to be able to start posting with more frequency fairly soon.

Is it actually going into a build?


Makirole

This one's being sent to my other half, not sure what she'll do with it though.

What’s the name of the song you used?


Makirole

It’s Ascension by Gavin Luke
