I've been interested in his MetalMaster for years, but wasn't (probably still am not) machinist enough to make it work. I'd be interested in photos and discussion about what and how you've done

This is my way of having a power feed on my Uni3. I found a small 24v motor with a 600:1 gearbox ratio. I made a variable powersupply "1.25v to 30v" and i can get the speed down to 19 revs per minute.
