Hi Brent -
The weather did not cooperate last night, so I was unable to star
test the thing, but I did play around for a couple of hours in the
daylight.? I'm pretty confident these things will work as they
should.? I don't feel any added resistance or misalignment, at
least on my mount.? It seems to fit pretty well.? If you encounter
any slight misalignment, hopefully the fix is as simple as
widening the holes just a touch, but for me, it seems a good fit.?
If you do try these brackets, please let me know if the fitment
was off at all.? And if you have any other suggestions, I'll try
and incorporate them.???
I used M3x16 cap screws to mount the stepper motor.? To mount the
bracket to the mount I used #6-32 x 1-1/2" cap screws, and to
mount the cover use a single #6-32 x 1" cap screw.? The bearings
were 625zz, and the shaft was 5mm x 50 to 60 mm long.? The 60T
pulleys I used (44mm OD) just clear the housing cover by a
fraction of a mm.?? You can turn the pulley down to gain clearance
if you need it.
Any questions, let me know.?
Thanks,
-Tony
