Engraving machine to milling machine.

[Adrian DownesParticipant @adriandownes83818]

Proof of the pudding 😁

Chomps brass quite nicely but complains about a bit of gauge plate!

Next stage is to improve the support mounting & make up a proper motor mount.

First working prototype.

Spindle / headstock is mounted on a myford milling slide supported by a fence / register bolted on to the side.

The motor fixing is a temporary lash up & in the configuration shown gives a spindle speed of approx 780 rpm.
