Mmm, The Watchmaking Blacksmith sounds like a good title ;-)

Thanks Matty, yes it made a big difference. Cheers.

Thanks. Yes first I thought it would be the wheel or the spindle. But then I noticed vibrations on the machine without having a wheel on there. So it needed to be in the drive system.

And yes. Wheel balancing is important. I did dress, balance and dress the wheel and sides before use. But that made no changes with the vibrations that I got. So it was not in the wheel.

Ik denk zelf dat het meer met onbalans en verschil in gereedschap druk te maken had dan de opstelling. Ik kon ook niet alles van het proces in de video goed laten zien. De spantang op de Schaublin draait erg nauwkeurig, binnen 0.002 mm. Het was een bewuste keuze om niet het center te pakken maar juist het deel van de as waar later de lager zit. Beide getest op rondloop, en de rotor zelf had in deze opstelling ook erg goede rondloop. Center aan de andere kant heb ik opnieuw erin gemaakt en ook nauwelijks beweging van de as als ik hem erin of uit haalde. Dus geheel best goed in lijn. Meedraaiend center is van prima kwaliteit maar losse kop die veel uitsteekt op de Schaublin 102 heeft zijn limit als het gaat om onbalans opvangen. Het slijpen van de poelie op de motor werkte uiteindelijk prima.

Yes very happy with the results

I didn't remove the cross table on mine so I dont have a video. Do you have a manual? Maybe that can help

@@bartharkemametalworks2299 I only have the operators manual, not an partslist manual 🙁🙁

@@sidewind131258 Send me an email to bartharkema at g mail dot com. I'll send you some more documents that can help.

Thanks!

Thanks, yes I didn't think it would work that well.

It's not possible to slip it by hand. And there is a lightening instruction in the manual.

Thanks. Mine has instructions on how to tighten it but just says 'until correct tension is achieved'. I'll make sure it doesnt slip, should be fine.

@TheMudfly80 there are two manuals. One with tension instruction and the other with it. Send me a mail and I'll send you the pdf. BartHarkema at g mail dot com.

I mean on with and other without

Thanks

Thanks, and good to know for the future that you can press out the shaft.

Thanks 👍

Thanks, I think the coolant system will be next. Or get my Deckel S1 running. Or the DRO on my mill, or on the grinder, or... Will see ;-). And our boy is doing great. Cheers!

Mine does the same. But make sure your belt tension is not to much. It should not pull the rubber mounts to much with normal tension. For tension. The hanging weight of the motor should be enough. Maybe a little more but not much.
