ELS Project Brackets

These are the brackets and accessories that I designed and printed/made from Aluminium to mount my NEMA23 Stepper Motor and Optical encoder Electronic Lead project from Clough42 (search on Youtube)

The Stepper Motor Mount I printed out of PLA to begin with to see if the holes all lined up with the holes on the Lathe as there can be differences between lathes, once this was confirmed I used it as a pattern to cut out the bracket from Aluminium on my bandsaw.

For the gear on the Optical encoder I used a gear from the change gears that came with the lathe and printed an adapter to fit it to the shaft of the encoder.

Please make sure these parts fit your parts before you print them!
