Follow along as I build a DIY fourth axis for my Tormach 770m. We are making a microarc clone for $750, more than $2,000 less than Tormach's Microarc.
Here is the parts list used.

Switch the bolts to CSK and you only need 1.2 times diameter thread engagement (length) where anything thereafter adds nothing by way of strength.

excellent project, looking forward to the next video. your spreadsheet does have a miscalculation in it. cell 19G is just multiplying hours * 50/hr, it should be multiplying hours * rate in 15G for those of us who don't value their time and want to adjust easily ;)

You should buy a lab mic for more consistent audio or force mono it in audacity. Your cameras mic seems to record in stereo making you only come out of one side of the audio

Yea i tried to average them to make it mono but couldnt figure it out

@@JackedMotionYou can use audacity to separate the channels and then just make each channel mono and then combine those two now mono channels. It's pretty quick and easy once you learn how to do it.

Why not use studs in the back of the chuck and then nuts on the back side of the chuck back plate? No spacer required.

Looks good, Your BOM seems to be missing a few items, including aluminum and a second pulley. Looking forward to the ret

I've always wondered if Tormach machines are worth it, they just look like they're made for educational purposes or a hobby, not for real production purposes.
