In the previous video we’ve finished the shaft (link below). Now there’s only one larger part left to do: the backplate. So let’s do the backplate in one go.

First we saw off a piece of POM and mill it to dimensions. Then we scribe some lines on it. After that we mill a pocket in the center, drill four 2.5mm holes 8.8mm deep and four 4.5mm through holes. Finally we thread the 2.5mm holes with M3.

00:00 Intro – a backplate to hide the ugly innards
00:38 Drawing – 4 holes, 4 threads and a pocket
01:48 Sawing – off a piece of POM stock
02:21 Milling (1) – 1st side square
03:21 Milling (2) – 2nd side square and to dimension
05:09 Milling (3) – 3rd side square
05:54 Milling (4) – 4th side square and to dimension
10:41 Scribing – 12 lines onto the workpiece
11:26 Milling (5) – a 8.8mm deep pocket
12:39 Drilling (1) – four 2.5mm holes, 8.8 mm deep
14:13 Drilling (2) – four 4.5mm through holes
16:06 Tapping – four M3 threads
16:44 Result – everything seems to fit
18:46 Wrap-up – next is the key, bye
