    Started mounting pinion in post. Had to cut down pinion and mount to shalf for bearings to clear rails. The belt will run inside tube and motors will be mounted above top rail. Top bearings are fixed and bottom bearings for rails are excentic for adjustment. I will mount racks to rails which will take a lot of time to get right, the rails will be positioned to bearings so they should never vary. I used the adjustable table to lift head of support posts, it work really well. I have a lot of gears and shaft to key. I have been working on a lot of other projects and it's nice to get back at it.

    I don't know if this shows up well enough the rack will be between rail and bearing mount. If it doesn't make sense I will try and explain it better. Sorry not much of a writer.

    Dude, are you confident that AOD pump is going to flow enough? Not sure it's enough pump 😉

    I had a different pump for it but it was a low pressure high volume and the ID of the spindle fitting is only 5mm so I was afraid there won't be enough pressure and just cavitat. If it doesn't cool enough I will run cooling tubes through the tank. I had the pump laying around so if it doesn't work I'll replace it with something else but it seems to move quite a bit of water. I appreciate the questions since this is my first go at this.

    I use a little Rule brand pump. Like a bilge pump for a boat. The spindles don't require much flow at all to stay cool. And that AOD pump might be too high a pressure for the fittings on your spindle. Wouldn't want your coolant lines blowing off.

    Your TIG welds look great! Wish I could weld like that.

    Thanks for the compliment but I'm not really that good at it but it's fun to tig weld stainless. I ran the pump for 15 minutes to see what it would do and I didn't have any leaks and I wanted to check spindle for leaks to make sure there wasn't a short before I fire it up. If the pressure is to high I can always turn down the air pressure up or down if need be. The electrical will be the big challenge. My old computer donor has issues and all the wiring diagrams are in Chinese other than that all is good. I really want to get this fired up so I can start breaking stuff. My screws came in so I can finish bolting the electrical components down and start landing wires. I need to figure out what needs fuses and where. Again thanks for the replys I feel better about my pump selection now.
