you must be confused... he's using a 3.7KW spindle servo motor 12k RPM (should weight about 40kg) + BT30 spindle unit, that's not a router motor... might not be the most powerful motor in the game but for what I see Tormachs 1100 doing with a 1.1KW motor I say he will be pretty well served...


you're getting closer and closer Stef, I should be starting my molds very very soon, just received the epoxy last week and got the sand yesterday... Now I need to buy some steel and wood for the molds... anyday now...

how much does that head weight? just the structure not with the motor and spindle...

best regards and keep the great work!
