My machine has a milling head and a 4th axis, so making my own is fairly straightforward (But thanks for the offer). However I run the risk of doing a lot of machining and still having exactly the same problems if it turns out that the paper encoder is adequate and that the problem is elsewhere, or if I choose my encoder resolution unwisely. The simplest solution would be to machine a series of slots in the lathe spindle drive pulley face, I think. (my encoder uses reflective sensors, I just need to check that there is enough contrast between cast-iron and no cast-iron. My system seems to track a 50-line encoder adequately, would that nromally be considered enough resolution for threading? -- atp ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Come build with us!
