New Machine

[JCarlton]

Hello everyone,
I just wanted to share my latest build with you. The frame is one piece steel and the motor housing is hand turned copper. The machine uses standard front and back springs and you can adjust the give as well as stroke length with a turn of the contact screw. I have been running it at 6 volts for everything and have had no issues. very smooth and quiet. Can hit extremely soft or as hard as direct drive. This is a prototype but I might make some in bronze or aluminum if there is enough interest. Thanks for checking it out.-J

wow! very very nice. . .

[JCarlton]

Thanks, I know its not all fancy but I kinda like it that way.

I'm loving the coil look with the rotary function, the A bar set up is simply genius, am I right in assuming it has an adjustable stroke?

[JCarlton]

Thank man, yeah adjustable stroke as well as give. it uses standard springs so you can change them out and dial it in even more if you want. Really fun machine.

I really like this hybrid look.
I like the dry bearing shaft too.

Dope man. I'll keep you posted. getting closer and closer. These rotary making is a different world...I thought it was going to be easier

hmmm thats really interesting hard for me to picture how that works, not saying it doesn't just hard to picture the two working togeather

[JCarlton]

The a-bar is free to move up the swing arm shaft therefore relying on the pressure of the back spring for the amount of "give" when the contact screw is turned up or down it adds more or less pressure resulting in harder or softer give and respective stroke length.
