Have any more of Mr Griffin's articles been published? (I've only seen the first one so far)

Thread: Advantages of belt drive for a milling machine?
16/10/2017 11:51:59

Thanks everybody for your thoughts and insights. I'm getting that belt drive (and brushless motor) is a nice to have rather than indispensable so I'll weigh up the extra outlay on that vs. more tooling or a getting a slightly bigger mill for the money.

I'm thinking of investing in a small milling machine somewhere in the 500 - 750W range. Some seem to be gear driven and others belt drive, which costs more. I wonder what the benefits of belt drive are and if they are worth the premium?

Sorry if this is an FAQ, a search of the forum didn't come up with a definitive answer.
