Looking to see if any of you guys have made or have plans for a inexpensive DIY turntable so I can rotate my piece as I weld.Torchmate 2x2 CNC with Flashcut CNC controlsHypertherm Powermax45 Esab ET220i Razorweld 195 MigRazorweld 200ac/dc TigTormach 770, Tormach xstechRazorweld, Vipercut/Vipermig, SSC Foot Pedal Dealer

Reply:Search, use "positioner" and you'll find any number of systems.http://weldingweb.com/search.php?searchid=3126621I can remember one done with a hand wheel underneath and a simple pair of bearings to support the shaft, a few done on lazy susans, one using a right angle gearbox and so on..No government ever voluntarily reduces itself in size.

Reply:Here's mine. Cheap engine stand and a headstock from a Clausing 6300 lathe. I got a killer deal on the headstock...it's actually a L00 spindle nose. I pulled the guts out to reduce resistance and weight...kept them just in case this needs to go to someone's lathe more than I need it for a positioner. Still need to work out a motor drive and possibly a pedal.
