Cutting Edge Engineering Australia via YouTube

Overview

Watch the third installment of a DIY tool post grinder build series. Follow along as the motor is mounted using a milling machine to drill and tap the base, and a custom spacer is machined for a secure fit on the lathe's top slide. Observe the creation of the pulley system, including precision reaming and broaching of keyways for efficient power transmission. Learn how to fabricate a protective guard from sheet metal and bolt it in place for safety. See the project progress as the motor is mounted and the pulley system is completed, setting the stage for the upcoming VFD connection and first test run in the next episode.
