Has anyone tried using a treadmill motor as a spindle motor for a mill? Should it be used as a direct drive, belt or gear? Also has anyone converted a Harbor freight 9x20 lathe to CNC? thanx  |

| Check these two threads for a start. The HF 9x20 and Grizzly 9x19 are virtually identical machines (the two sellers just measure differently). http://www.cnczone.com/forums/showthread.php?t=26530 http://www.cnczone.com/forums/showthread.php?t=37656 John and I have both done CNC conversions and we have both used treadmill motors for the spindle drives.
