A new 4th [axis] on the 4th

The 4th axis project kicked into high gear this week. I found a good deal on this 6" cnc rotary table and tailstock, so about $400 and my eBay account made this happen in about 2 weeks!


I had this motor controller laying around, but after hooking everything up I realize that it's not compatible in a few different ways so it's coming out and another red one will be in the mail soon :-)




In honor of Shark Week, I have decided to test my new 4 axis CNC with this fun project. A little teaser for my readers!



 Some older pics of things from the past few weeks.
