Working on the Motor, Pulleys and Guard for Our HEAVY DUTY Tool Post Grinder! | Part 3

Video Description

Get ready for another exciting instalment of our DIY tool post grinder build! In this episode, we dive into the motor mounting process, using our milling machine to drill and tap the base for a secure fit. We also machine up a custom spacer to ensure a snug mount on the lathe's top slide. Then watch as we craft the pulley system, complete with precision reaming and broaching of keyways, setting the stage for efficient power transmission. To ensure safety, we also fabricate a protective guard from sheet metal and securely bolt it in place. With the motor mounted and the pulley system complete, our tool post grinder is taking shape. In the next episode we'll tackle the VFD connection and conduct our first test run. Stay tuned to see this project come to life!
