Promote and discuss your product / WonderMotor ?

Has anyone else tried a wonder motor off of eBay?
DC variable speed 5500 rpm's no load.
Maximum torque @ 2500,
I got one recently and belt drove it.
I made new pulley so it goes 6500 rpm in the middle range.
7700 in the high range for engraving.
With a 1/8" mill it will take a .150 deep cut @2 imp.
The motor was $159.00
100 Watt
It has a ditigal read out of rpm's.
Also totally silent motor when not attached to spindle.
Over all it is a pretty nice deal all around.
Sweet.

General Mach Discussion / Fixture Plate

« on: January 06, 2012, 09:57:07 PM »

Made a fixture plate a few weeks ago. I Have two Emco vises alike so I put hole patterns to match them.
I spaced all the other holes .5 apart & staggered @ 1/4".
I ended up with 186   10-32 tapped holes, I made it at work on my HAAS VF-3.

General Mach Discussion / Mach3 seems slower than mach2

« on: March 26, 2011, 04:11:40 PM »

Just loaded Mach 3 in my computer and it seems to rapid slower than it did on Mach2.
I think it has to do with telling Mach three about the gecko 540 to recognize it.
Help
