The timing for your posts is coincident with my efforts. I have 2 of the same rotarys and have removed the motor from one.
I figured I'd mount a 3 or 4 jaw chuck that ties in to the 4 inner holes on the face plate. The four outer holes get fixed to the axis. I'm still looking for a chuck that has a means to mount easily to those 4 - but no luck yet. The 4 threaded holes are equally spaced on a 2 5/8 circle. Hopefully something is available that won't need too much interfacing.
(ANY ideas out there - are welcome!!)
BTW - Have you sourced a gear for the stepper to drive the rotary? Or do you plan on pulling the one off the Globe Motor and reusing it?
