Does anyone know what the thread size is on an ER-32 collet closer nut? I want to adapt my Unimat the nose to fit the collet closer nut. Thanks, Dick -- http://www.homemadetools.net/ forum/ OFF-

I'm trying to do the opposite. I just got the same motor. It is packed with decades of dust and grease and I'm trying to take it spart to clean. I removed 2 long screws and 4 screws that hold the

I turn more wood and plastic on mine that any other materials. Steel and Ali I normally do on my larger machines.

Hi needed to change the motor on my Unimat SL as it kept tripping the power. I bought a 12v DC motor and a cheap PWM speed controller for it. I 3D printed a pulley for the motor so I could turn a new

You'll be way happier with the 24 VDC conversion. They have comfortable power and run cool. The power supply and switching speed control are not expensive. And replacement motors are inexpensive. Neil

I was assuming that any power supply would built into a decent casing, with a mains switch, and maybe a separate on/off switch for the output. A power indicator and an output fuse would be normal. To

Thanks for the tip, Carl. I seldom work with plastic, but will remember you advise if I do cut plastic. I do have a speed controller and can adjust the speed down to a crawl if needed. Larry

Factory options to use the unimat for wood were many. Table saw, jig saw, planer, Tool rests, mounts, table router etc.?Jeff

Hi Nate I would guess that the stigma has to do with the wood dust getting into the bearings? as you can see from my photo i covered everything as best i could to keep the chips and dust contained. I

Bread sticks? petrified bread? Was that for a party decoration? Best Regards John

Probably only if it was a relic of the True Cross ;-)

Hi John, Nice work, a handle? I totally get your sentiment with the "wood" thing. But it brings to mind the question I've long had about the source of the stigma? I have my opinions, but I would love

Hi Larry: The table saw can be run slow so it doesn't melt plastic parts. Carl.

I too have turned wood on my uni. I'm a model railroader and have made model telephone poles, just like the ones in my area, which are are made from pine trees and straight as an arrow. Also I use the

Hi John: I cut wood all the time. I've seen bread sticks turned too. Carl.

Hi Keith: Add a line switch or just unplug it. In trade school we had to shut the mills off at the wall during setups. If swarf is a problem tape over the openings. Most of our cuts are short, but if
