This page documents the build of a glassblowing lathe. Projected started on May 29, 2019 by BES and Andrew Ferris.

Introduction

So what is a lathe? Lathe diagram.jpg

Construction

Step 1) can we control a stepper motor using an Arduino?

Step 2) Can we now run two stepper motors using an Arduino?

Step 3) Can we mount the two stepper motors onto a rail and how one movable?

Step 4) Can we construct a glassblowing "chuck" to be mounted on the stepper motors?
