Re: Milling with the DB 200
I ordered a 2 1/2"? 1/4" hole? 0-50 graduated handwheel from Sherline.? It is $16.38 + $4 shipping.? At this price, there is no need to be searching and dicking around with anything else.? They

Re: Alternative motor for the Unimat SL
Hello: My new motor finally showed up. Contrary to what I expected, the ~ US$22.00 paid for shipping had it shipped on 23/06 and arrive on 14/07, just three weeks which is quite reasonable. It must

Re: Milling with the DB 200
Hi John: I would look in my junk box, I do have a 100 graduated dial from Hardinge. Then there is McMaster-Carr: https://www.mcmaster.com/graduated-knobs/ Or Misumi:

Re: Milling with the DB 200
I believe Sherline knobs fit 1/4" shafts, you might find used ones on Ebay if someone has upgraded to ones with adjustable scales.? Replacement knobs are available from Sherline or Taig for cross

I am wondering what is the difference between machines with plastics vs. metal hand wheels. Production time or place? -Jarod

Re: off topic question repowering
Hi Gang: The other important fact is the voltage drop for a given amperage is the same no matter what voltage you start at. So a 3 volt drop at 12 volt is a bigger problem than at 120 volts. So 18AWG

Re: off topic question repowering
Good Evening Don, The original question dealt with voltage drop on a 24 volt line. (See original question below.) The voltage drop for a length of wire is dependent on its length, the current through

Re: Overall Performance of Unimat 3
And for those who have a 3D printer, files to print Module 1 change gears for the 7x mini-lathes are available on Thingiverse.com, and probably elsewhere.? The Smithy CB-1220XL 3-in-1 machine my

Re: Overall Performance of Unimat 3
The 7¡± minilathe also uses module 1 plastic change gears which are readily available. Dick

Re: Overall Performance of Unimat 3
I have the equivalent as a ready made item. I realised that more pitches become possible if you can use a first gear with 24 teeth instead of 25, plus the use of a compound gear in the train. I was

Re: Overall Performance of Unimat 3
That's been done BUT it winds up as a big box under the lathe so the horizontal feed can be geared to the headstock. Used to be advertised in Popular Mechanics etc. I think there's a link in one

Re: Overall Performance of Unimat 3
Wow great job do you think this could be fitted on a sl / db lathe? Did you upload the stl file so we could make our own set of gears¡­

No Dick I cheated and 3D printed the Gears in PLA+. They are Module 1 Metric gears.

Re: Overall Performance of Unimat 3
Mike, Awesome workmanship on your thread cutting attachment for the U3. Did you cut your own gears? Also, is there a thread cutting gear chart available for the attachment? Thanks very much for the

Re: off topic question repowering
Since the motor is 150 W the current for the 110 V supply is only 1.36 A, call it 1? A, so quite light wire will do. I would use whatever is easy to use - sometimes a wire can be too thin to be
