I agree i should put stronger X but I thought I wouldn't work with metal. The plan is to have two machining motors on the y axis, one with a saw and one with a router bit, on the opposite side there will be a heavy classic knife holder to balance it. on X Axis .Tailstock should be Z axis..I am planning this lathe for making some smaller pieces of wood and primarily the main spindle as the A axis, I have to figure out how to connect it so that it can also work as a spindle (S command to main main motor, instead of A) because the piece needs to be cut at the end with a classic knife.
