- The rail and ball screw as well as the ball nut are from http://www.mcmaster.com/
- The rest is all machined Aluminum
- The spool is replaceable or interchangeable with the thumb screw, and it has a tendency to come
loose in operation .
- The spool is split in half and threaded together so that it can be unscrewed and separated. Then the
wound material can be removed.
- The threading is in the reverse of the rotation so that it will not come loose in operation.
- A cardboard tube is placed on the spool to fascinate removal of the wound material.
- There is a notch in the side of the master spool so that the material can be secured
- The motors, drives and power supply are from Http://www.automationdirect.com The software that
controls it is from http://www.artofcnc.ca/
- Mach 3 with the custom screen created by Brian Barker at the CNC workshop. (he is a great guy
and a programing genius)
- The partly functional screen is available at the top of the screen.
- The code has been modified to work better with my machine
- Fishing line wound on a spool. The line is laid down in a nice and flat level wind.
- The random out of order winds are from when I cut the line.
