It's alive! I'm still waiting on the sensor connector. Now UPS is saying it'll be here Tuesday instead of Monday.

I finished the mounting block for the mini lathe tachometer. I replaced the plastic mount for the chuck guard that came with the lathe with an aluminum one that has a 1/4-20 tapped hole for mounting the tachometer bracket. The cavity in the plastic block housed a micro-switch to disable the motor driver when the chuck guard was not engaged. That's one of the first things I got rid of when I first got the lathe.

Mocked up the mounting scheme for the tachometer. Looks good so I can convert it into steel.

Got the magnets mounted for testing. I still need to make a holder/bracket for the Hall effect sensor.

Full of ideas, but slow to produce parts

Any worry about the magnets flying off at high speed?
