Teaching an old dog new tricks! I recently got a Rivett 60 series lathe for a great price and wanted to add a power feed to it. I decided to approach this using a stepper motor rather than come up with something too elaborate and mechanical.

The final outcome of this project will be a power feed module that I can use on my Rivett lathe, as well as a quill feed for my mill, and any other synchronized motion requirements I might have. The lofty dream is to even implement threading some day!
