Belt drive from the stepper? If there's enough metal in the pulley, drill and tap three holes into the face then get six flanged rubber bushings. Mill out a circle of metal with three holes. Put bushings in holes, bolts through bushings. Screw to pulley. Hooray! A damper. :)

I can go back to 8 on this just to test. At 8 I can hear it even at 1 rps. Single shaft motors, so I can't put dampers on any of these. Darn it. Dampers on the toy mill, and on the lathes z are a huge help, tripling the rapids capability. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Find and fix application performance issues faster with Applications Manager Applications Manager provides deep performance insights into multiple tiers of your business applications.
