    Nice work on the clean up. Do you have the wiring diagram for it? The first step would be tracking one down, so you can see what interfaces those original drivers have. If those stepper drives are step/dir, it will be very easy to interface with them. I use LinuxCNC with Mesa cards on all my machines now. A 7i96 is an excellent compact solution for a small stepper machine like this. It is what I used on my mini-lathe conversion.

      @@machineshopatthebottomofth3213 If they are step/dir you can. If they have some funky interface, you might need to replace them. Do the motors have Nema 23 flanges? You might end up replacing them in the drivers anyway, as motor motors and drivers perform a lot better than those old ones. The 7i96 can do a PWM output for spindle speed. I used a dirt cheap amazon PWM - 0/10V board to interface with a VFD.

    I have a denford starturn, that I got with no control panel and a friend of mine has assembled one that works really well for ball turning. It’s using the original steppers and original well made DC spindle motor. Mines on Mach 3 and isn’t great for screw cutting as the board it’s on only uses 1 reference point for spindle position.

    *_WELL DONE!!!_* What a cool A-Levels project! Have you published schematics for the power supply/system anywhere? Questions: 1) In watching pro EM speaker fabrication, I noticed that the membrane is coated _prior_ to tensioning and adhesion. Why did you invert that order? 2) I noticed (and I'm sure you did too) that the membrane is *not* evenly tensioned after your adhesion. What are your thoughts on why that is? I theorise that tensioning your membrane onto a larger frame, then lowering your tensioned membrane over your housing (allowing you to roll the membrane on the tape _while still under tension attached to the larger frame)_ might solve this, however I also noted that most of your slack was located on the tweeters... Perhaps the solution is to tension the membrane, adhere it to the woofer *only,* then _retention_ the excess on the tweeter side before adhering it there is the solution? 3) Any thoughts on the value (and feasibility) of a curved design? I look forward to hearing your thoughts.

    • @machineshopatthebottomofth3213
      @machineshopatthebottomofth3213 11 місяців тому

      Hi ross, i did not produce any schematics (that are worth sharing). I would suggest getting a book like 'electrostatic speaker cookbook'. The curved design (like ML) give good and even dispersion but cause more distortion and are more difficult to make. There is no down side of coating post stretch, but with the conductive coating is used it would be nearly impossible to coat direct from the roll
