This thread convinced me to convert my rotary table to stepper drive, as I already have 90% of the components and now the Arduino Sketch, I just needed a fire under my A**. Bob
Me no speaky the ruski anic: looks real interesting though :thumbzup3:Found this - Electronic lead screw - (Russian site) - http://www.chipmaker.ru/topic/118083/ and YouTube Channel - https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC4MxjkvIAM-RirhJelPrGHw
Nice setup, Arduino Mega and LCD keypad. Personally I would be happy to have something that just powered the Z. Don't really need or want "full" automation. Still, looks interesting.

Mark, I thought the same thing, about 4 months ago, but you will get hooked once you automate the Z axis. Than the X axis to do threading, tapers and balls, after that you will start looking at Machine Control Software, there is no end after that, believe me. BobFound this - Electronic lead screw -
