It’s done using a legacy revo mill which just like the normal mills but with one side removed which makes it easier to film and for people to see what your doing Bill From: legacy-ornamental-mills@googlegroups.com <legacy-ornamental-mills@googlegroups.com> On Behalf Of bulke...@mmnet.com.au Sent: Sunday, July 28, 2024 4:12 PM To: legacy-ornamental-mills@googlegroups.com Subject: RE: Motor Drive for LOM Looks like you have done a fine job making your own drive motor the only problem with that type of motor for me is the reduction gear is a worm drive and not strait gears they don’t let you turn the leadscrew by hand for fine adjustments or creeping up to a stop without disconnecting it is more difficult than relying just on the limit switch. The Chinese speed control work ok they just don’t last a long long time like the legacy one do I have 2 on head stock motors. Also the legacy motor they use is a 90 volt DC which runs at 0 to 112 rpm if I remember i can look it up if anyone wants. But hey if its all working ok and your totally happy with it great and best of all so much cheaper Bill From: legacy-ornamental-mills@googlegroups.com (mailto:legacy-ornamental-mills@googlegroups.com) <legacy-ornamental-mills@googlegroups.com (mailto:legacy-ornamental-mills@googlegroups.com)> On Behalf Of Wayne Oldenburg Sent: Monday, July 22, 2024 1:50 AM To: Legacy Ornamental Mills <legacy-ornamental-mills@googlegroups.com (mailto:legacy-ornamental-mills@googlegroups.com)> Subject: Motor Drive for LOM I am new to this group and have enjoyed various discussions. I have noticed that a few people would like a motor drive for their mill, but they are expensive and hard to find. I built a motor drive for my LOM at a cost of less than $200. I am attaching a document that explains what I did. I hope it will help some of you. I would also welcome improvements that you may see. I am new to posting so I hope this woks.
