    My new High Speed Spindle

    The good news: I got my Wolfgang Engineering spindle (he no longer sells them on eBay).

    The bad news: I go to start making a mount for it and my Z-axis is dead on my HobbyCNC Pro. I test the Z using the Y-axis driver and it works.

    The good news: I have a Gecko 540 on order.

    Anyway, here is the spindle and the mount I'm planning. The spindle body if .75" in diameter. The mount will screw to the side of the X2 head. Looking for input since I have time on my hands.

    Thanks,
    Jay
