General Mach Discussion / Re: BT30 spindle from scratch - with power drawbar and ATC of course

Except for about 30 minutes to install the flow control valves and make that video, I've been too busy with "real" work to touch mine in weeks. Hopefully later this week I'll be abve to get back on it. I think I can finish it off in about a week, once I have the time.
Most of us are in that boat, I suspect. I did schedule time for the project, so I could work on it *almost* full time for a few weeks, but I did not get it done completely due to pesky interruptions like food and sleep. Now I will be off line for two months with the next scheduled project, so that levels the playing field and makes for a fair contest, methinks.
As for the prize . . I like Cave Creek Chili Beer . . . . Just sayin'
