[QUOTE="johnsattuk, post: 140766, member: 183150"] I havn't looked at the 120cm very closely yet. It is coupled to my EchoStar which drives the origional 36v motor very well. I am also wondering wether I shall keep it or not. With the DreamBox it meant that I would have to get a V-Box, or similar , yet another box more cables etc. I think that the 120cm would be easier to convert, it has not got a seperate spindle, it's spindle is part of the diecasting, and it has a nice flat suface to bolt to. You need to be on the centre axis, but that is fairly easy to determine. It does have an M6 retaining bolt from underneath on centre, so could be drilled through the tapped hole to give a centre point for the adaptor. An adaptor for the motor shaft, similar to the one I have used on the 90cm, with a flat plate welded to it, 60mm x 120mm x 5mm approx. perhaps shaped to match the top of the diecasting (cosmetic) and two bolts through the diecasting.
