Looking for the best upgrade you can make to a hobby lathe? no more change gears!
This is the controller only – you need to provide an encoder input with approx 800 steps per revolution and a sufficiently powerful stepper motor to drive.
Since different lathes will have different challenges, I’m happy to work with purchasers to figure out the best way to integrate the system into their lathe.
