    Default Making Indexer a CNC Lathe

    Currently Modifying my indexer so that at the time of turning of wooden stock , it act like a commercial CNC lathe..and when I do Vcarving or relief stuff it work as indexer..

    Modification in progress and it will be implemented in a couple of days... I got the 220V Motor with 1400 RPM... I am making Vpully so that the RPM can be increased to 2000...

    I am doing this modification because to get the Precise turning so that Vcarving or releif work can be put onto that turn piece precisly...

    Khalid, let me know how this works out. I turn professionally and have several lathes including a copy lathe. I wouldn’t mind designing something at my desk then spinning a few on my Bot.

    Thanks, Carl
