this is the type of thing I was talking about with ways cloth (tho this one is more cardboard) cut it a little bigger the the ways and mount it on both sides of the carriage to protect them but the

Welcome to the group Bill's Workbench! 3d printing is great for accessories and such for the unimat and it's awesome that you're sharing your creations I have a digital indicator from Ebay seller

Congratulations on your first pen. Re #2: If using a Unimat to turn wood, you should cover the ways, and more importantly, the leadscrew that moves the carriage. You don’t need anything fancy, as an

Hi the normal lead screw is LH. the method that I went for for screw cutting was a chain drive from the chuck drive. That requires a RH thread on the lead screw. Which is very helpful……. It’s

Hi: Keep your vacuum handy, or even attach to the tool post. Carl.

Please refer to this photo of my Unimat vertical post which I included in a recent message.? There is an aluminum bracket holding a dial indicator clamped across the two bars of the bed with two

Carl, maybe that would work if I incorporated the mount in a riser for the headstock. ?Humm, maybe version 2.

Hi Gang: What if the mount attached to the motor bracket? Then it wouldn't matter if you moved the quill or the carriage, it would still show the movement between the tool and the work! Carl.

It looks like one I bought some years ago. It has one big negative IMHO. The three rods are not threaded into the ring making fine adjustment almost impossible. One of these fine days, I going to

Hello: Interesting and nicely done.? 8^) Your photos clearly illustrate the issue of the lack of meat in the section of the carriage that holds the lead screw thread. A question if I may: Why the two

My suggestion is to make it clamp across both bars.? At times Ebay seller hkoesnadi has made these from machined aluminum as a cross bed clamp.? If you can make yours strong enough, it should also

Hello everyone, first-time poster and very new to Unimat stuff. I created a 3D printable dial-indicator holder for my Unimat and thought I would share it. You can find it here:

I did some mods to the lead screw as well (I used a couple of mecano gears and a chain drive to the lead screw for threading). Because I needed a direction reversal as well I changed the lead screw to

Hello: Sorry to revive a year old thread but there does not seem to be an option to send a PM to another member. I have been looking at different options to try to fix the severe carriage backlash

My 150W motors came with flats on them. I used the Unimat as a drill press and drilled and tapped a set in the center of a spare? Unimat lathe pulleys.?Jeff
