This my take on the 4th axis rotary table. Jmc-motor.com NEMA 23 285 oz. in. IHSS57-36-20 integrated closed loop stepper. Belt drive reduction, belt on order. Give it 20 to 48vdc and step and direction. Built in driver and encoder. Enough power to turn against a 3/8 end mill doing serious work...

Hence a set of 20-40-60 blocks would make much more sense. Hmm, I'd use 6mm-1.00 threads, since I always have one 10mm combination wrench near the mill. 8mm-1.25 has a 13mm hex, so that's a contender as well.

I really need to make some, i have a hf X2 44991, not the most rigid of machines. Really need to get a 2" vice for it, and a 3" if I can find one cheap enough. My 4" is a bit big, though thats going on a friend's rf-31.
