A second video in the same year? Something feels off! Ah just kidding. This is the second installment of the Rivett power feed series. It has come to my attention that the company in question is pronounced "rih-VETT", like Corvette, so I will be pronouncing it correctly in this video!
In this part I'm finishing the machining, and in the next part I'm planning on doing assembly AND electronics. I seem to have collected more footage than I thought, and despite ruthlessly cutting it down, it could end up being two additional videos. We'll have to see!

day 2 of i want a small cnc lathe Video 😂😂😂

@TabletopMachineShop Год назад

I hear ya. I've opened some doors I need to close first, and then I'll get back to the CNC lathe videos. I have some plans for it that I'm pretty excited about and that will hopefully make it a bit more accessible for others to try as well.

great looking parts, cool project! The spindle motor on my G0704 also gave out at some point, in my machine with a variable speed DC Motor, grizzly used a pretty accurate knockoff of a KBIC-120 motor driver board, if that helps at all (at one point I'd switched it to an actual board I found on eBay and ran that until the motor itself burnt out) The speed range on these machines is a little silly, they do really well with smaller tools at higher speeds. Also, instead of the gear drive for the spindle, a lot of folks (myself included) have whipped up belt drives, quieter and a little smoother.

I think a belt drive with proper torque vectoring is probably the right move. I've seen a few great kits for good prices, but I have to look at them a little closer before I decide on what to go with. A lot of kits seem to be geared toward CNC conversions and don't accommodate using the quill, which I would miss. Thanks for the comment!

For my change belt lathe I found a 2hp 1050rpm Seimens motor on ebay for $50 shipped. Then hooked it up with a 2kw vhd off amazon $100. Been using it for years and I love it. It makes enough torque to use geometric die head at 18rpm without backgear or ever changing belts.

@TabletopMachineShop Год назад

wow that sounds awesome -- can't beat industrial kit! I've been lurking around eBay as well. I can't really afford to spend money to replace something that still works, but if I see a screaming deal like that I'll probably jump on it!

Its all looking really nice , you haven't had that manual mill all that long have you? A couple of years or so ? I need to save and replace my 15 year import mill its tiny and supremely underpowered. I built a wall mounted swing out camera arm for lathe shots after getting tired of vibration issues,

@TabletopMachineShop Год назад

Thanks! Yeah i've had the mill for about a year and a half now, but I would say i've only really been using it a lot for the last few months. I knew it wouldnt be perfect, but I wasn't expecting the electronics to be the issue haha!

I'm so happy to see you're back. I've missed your videos and humour.

@TabletopMachineShop Год назад

Thanks, great to hear it :)

Wow you're alive!

yes sir!

never make gears from brass. use bronze and they'll last much much longer

@TabletopMachineShop Год назад

I've heard of both, bronze is a far superior material for gears, but brass is obviously much easier to work with. Both of them surface harden while in use, both slide well against steel, etc. For my application, where I want to make sure the countershaft gears fail first, the fact that brass is weaker than bronze is an advantage!
