Re: [sherline] Stepper motor mounting info needed

Arnold, Diane and the List:
CC Bill, Luis


JigBlk1.jpg and
JigBlk2.jpg

files are now posted on sherline@egroups for your enjoyment. Using
Sherline's new mounting hole layout will be useful to those adding or
planning to add stepper motors to the Sherline Mill/Lathe.

My new VectorCAM program (I'm just learning it) can also output .DXF
(file exchange std), .CCN (VectorCad), and .DGN (AutoCad) files if
anyone wants. the .DXF files have me puzzled. Are there dimensions in
my .DXF files? I can't see them. I thought I had. Oh well.

Dimensions include hole-hole and hole-leadscrew dimensions from Sherline
(as used in Mill/Lathe). Please also refer to Sherline's excellent
"Free Instructions for all Sherline Accessories" at:

http://www.sherline.com/accessor.htm

and read the "Installing CNC Stepper Motor Mounts On A Sherline Mill".

http://www.sherline.com/6700inst.pdf

I'm not connected to Sherline in any way.

P.S. Bill & Luis:
Did anyone get the .DXF & .DGN files? Data formats readable? Any
comments?
