5 pound mill.
I am currently working on a new 5-pound mill, the jars have been custom made for myself.
So far the setup is 3 drive rollers but I may be looking at driving all the rollers, a lot depends on the motor capability but to be honest I think it will work fine and if it doesn’t I have a twin drive option in the pipeline just in case!

Re: 5 pound mill.
Good luck. Can’t wait to hear more. Ran the new mill yesterday for some upcoming tests.
Re: 5 pound mill.
It works just great and stacks of power to boot, the mill should take on a rebel at a third of the price!

Re: 5 pound mill.
Neat!
But I'm still convinced it would run on a single motor.

Even when I'm wrong, I'm convincing.
Re: 5 pound mill.
I expect it would but the plan was to make the mill so that it could cope with a 6-inch jar as well as the 4 inch, Lloyds jar fits straight on the mill.

OK - I wasn't aware of that. In that case, I'll withdraw my comment!

Re: 5 pound mill.
Be sure to share your impression Sambo. I like my little mill so much I loaned out my modified Rebel going on 2 years ago now and haven’t missed it. I still have a stock Rebel that hasn’t been touched since the little one arrived either.
Re: 5 pound mill.
700 grams seems to be the sweet spot for the mill, it’s got around 26 hrs on it now no problems at all so I think it’s good to go.

Nice one Ken it looks like the biz. B
