December 2019<\/h3>\r\n

Now im just showing off<\/p>\r\n\r\n<\/div>\r\n

\r\n\r\nNow with a little Arduino experience im feeling a bit more confident with how I understand it. Ive decided it was time to take this thing to the next level.\u00a0 It wasent so much needed, but another test to myself of what im capable of.\u00a0 Also, it would just be awesome, anything awesome is just worth attempting.\u00a0 The original head angle position design is manual, with a spring loaded knob that\u2019s pulled on to allow free 0-90degree movement of the head position. When the knob is pulled the head can freely move. While doing this you are required to pull the knob with one hand while supporting the head with the other. The machine must be fastened down to something otherwise it will want to flop over, the Lathe Chuck on this thing is heavy so its not an easy task, its not hard but it does take some care as not to smash or pinch your hand while doing so. Also the spring loaded lock sometimes misses the hole and requires some finesse to get locked in, while holding the heavy lathe chuck end this can be annoying.\r\n\r\nSo I come up with a plan to make this function also motorized, using the same Arduino for the rotating function of the lathe chuck.\r\n\r\n<\/div>\r\n<\/div>\r\n<\/div>\r\n<\/div>\r\n\r\n
