While researching the various ways to convert my Sherline mill to CNC it =
occured to me that certain profiles of aluminum extrusions might be =
perfect for mounting some NEMA 23 and other "format" stepper motors by =
just slicing off a couple of inches and tapping or using self-tapping =
screws, with the motor shaft running longitudinally down a hollow =
extrusion.=20
Has anyone done this ? I am primarily interested in NEMA 23 but I'm sure =
that extrusions readily adaptable to other mounting schemes would be =
useful for tinkerers frequenting this group. Maybe strong plastic =
extrusions would work too ?
