Modular 65mm Spindle Mount for ShapeOko2
Description
I'Ve Designed A 65Mm Spindle Mount To Fit A Shapeoko2! I'M Using This Mount To Hold A Chinese Water-Cooled 65Mm Ac Spindle. **You Can Learn More About This Mount By Watching The Videos I Made About It:** * [Demonstration Of The Basic Features Of The Mounting System.](Https://Www.Youtube.Com/Watch?V=Iyn1Qcq3Y6U) * [Demonstration Of The Dust-Collection Features Of The Mounting System.](Https://Www.Youtube.Com/Watch?V=Yutoi7Dqxyw) **The Mount Solves The Following Problems:** + Mount Holds The Spindle Securely On The Z-Axis + Mounted Spindle Clears The Motor Mount At The Top Of The Z-Axis. + Mount Fits Onto The Existing Z Carrage And Does Not Add Undue Angular Load To The Z-Axis. + Mount Is 3D Printable And Requires Only Minimal Hardware To Install. (M5 Bolts Of Varying Lengths) + Mount Is Sized Correctly To Account For Abs Shrinkage. + Mount Holds A [Laser Diode](Http://Www.Amazon.Com/Gp/Product/B00Bp42Ymw/Ref=As_Li_Tf_Tl?Ie=Utf8&Camp=1789&Creative=9325&Creativeasin=B00Bp42Ymw&Linkcode=As2&Tag=Zorlackcom-20) For Help With Centering. + Mount Integrates With A 1.25" Vacuum Hose And Provides Dust-Collection At The Bit. **Update** I'Ve Added A New Dust-Foot, Called The Dust Boot. It Is An Alternate Version Of The Dust-Collection Foot. This Version Doesn'T Restrict Air-Flow As Much, But It Does Obscure More Of The Cutting Head. I Think Its Better At Containing Chips And Fine Dust, But You Be The Judge! For Extra-Credit, Try Adding A Strip-Brush To Make The Seal Even Better!
