Where's the humor? Where's the baritone voice? :) Thank you for posting some clips, it's neat to see.

Excited to see it going! What's the humongous z-axis plate for? Just to hold the giant spindle?

It extends past the bearing block and shaft coupling to the motor mount. That's a bit wasteful, the stiffness of the thick steel plate is only needed between clamping plate and axis carriage. The spindle hopefully make it look a little more balanced, but it's not really that giant

Am I hearing squeking from the motor driver? Sounds annoying even thru youtube :O

Yeah, that hissing is quite terrible for everyone under 50 :) I wonder if there's something I could do about it
