Re: Adding a stepper driven lathe to print in 4D

How many lathe designs do we have?
And what do I need to make a cheap turntable that also may need to be heated? I cannot find any existing budget parts and I don't have a machine shop. Turning an aluminum plate with an extended hub to keep the motor cool and a lip to catch hot air may be a good idea. Than heat this plate with a heat gun heating element.
