Oh and if you werent thinking of it, I'd replace that turn handle with a dc motor..... hehe

I thought of doing something like that also. I settled on using acme screw with sprocket and chains and a wheel to raise. If that doesn't work I will try the scissor lift. I would make sure you have...

Yes, the knob I am turning is a pot connected to the dc control board for controlling the speed.

Well after some delay and moving garages, I have completed the conveyor table.

Got some more work done on the drum sander.

Glued up the rollers and trued them up with a jig and a router. They run pretty true. At 1750 RPM no real vibration or rumble detected or felt. I am...

Drums epoxied....

There is some really neat stuff in this upgrade.

I don't see why it wouldn't move up or down equally. I am using an acme lead screw with nuts and sprockets on the bottom, so when one screw turns the rest turns the exact amount which in turn raises...

I'm not quite getting what you mean. The table will be adjusted constantly several times for each piece so having to screw each time you move the table up or down depending on the wood you are...

yes thank you. I am talking about your aluminum pantarouter. Thats amazing.

Thats really cool. I have Matthias's wood one but I may try to copy yours. Would you mind?

I seen another guy do something similar with the conveyor table and electronics and I liked it so I will do similar as you can see in the pic. This is the dc motor with a controller that I can...

I must weld the nuts on the base. These are the Screw nuts that the acme lead screw will use to pull the table up when the handle is turned.

Is it expensive to ship to Canada? Is there a US counterpart? I need some hook and loop velcro rolls for my drum sander. Both sides the hook and the loop.

Curious, which one is glued or attached...

Some pieces to make the conveyor elevation table.

Some Notes:

The top with the dust collection will have a interlock switch so when the top is removed no power will reach the motor preventing it from spinning.

I will have two guide rollers to...

Cool. That's a tall order. 1000mm wow... Mine is 36 with 1.25 and I don't think I could have gone further.
doesn't flex at all and with the 6" discs epoxied to it I don't think it would either.
...

Not sure on motor yet. It is a 1 HP on there now. I have a 5 HP 3 phase I will use a VFD on probably. I also have a big DC motor I can use and a control circuit to control speed. Not sure yet.
The...

It is actually quite smooth and pretty quiet. IT sounds loud with the mic next to it but its not really that loud.


I can balance a nickel on edge while it is running. Pretty smooth but we will...

ok thats cool. They are just showing up as filenames in line.

Sorry guys, I don't know why the pics are not showing up.

After tiresome sanding of planer snip, tool marks etc.... I think it is time to build a wide drum sander.

I have already started and have the frame welded and a few minor additions.

I want it...
