Spindle Mount for 80mm VFD Spindle (STL attached)

The one thing I did not detail out that you will want to be aware of, the 40x40 beam does not just plug and play fit. You will need to elongate the oblong mounting holes a few mm. I did this using a drill press, and was a fairly simple process.

More details of the mod I made can be found here:

For spindle I am using the 1.5KW found here

In general the recommendation for the xcarve is the .8KW found here

I only ended up with the 1.5 because I cooked my .8KW by failing to set PID 004 to 400 in the vfd controller.
