&lt;p&gt;This post ist about the CNC conversion of a manual dividing head aka indexing head. If you&amp;rsquo;re not familiar with that kind of equipment, there&amp;rsquo;s a wiki page &lt;a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Indexing_head" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer"&gt;here&lt;/a&gt;.  One makes use of interchangeable indexing plates and and the internal worm gear to accurately divide the circle. Parts like cogwheels and the like can be machined this way. A video of the finished project can be found &lt;a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t6Jza_RfRic&amp;amp;t" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer"&gt;here&lt;/a&gt; on my &lt;a href="https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCdcIIVbsculxiQC2TCiIIKQ" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer"&gt;youtube cannel&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;</description><media:content xmlns:media="http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/" url="https://soldernerd.com/posts/dividing-head-controller/feature.jpg"/></item><item><title>MPPT Solar Charger Testing</title><link>https://soldernerd.com/posts/mppt-solar-charger-testing/</link><pubDate>Wed, 28 Sep 2016 00:00:00 +0000</pubDate><guid>https://soldernerd.com/posts/mppt-solar-charger-testing/</guid><description>&lt;figure&gt;&lt;img

&lt;p&gt;In a &lt;a href="https://soldernerd.com/posts/mppt-solar-charger-design/" &gt;previous post&lt;/a&gt; I have presented a design for an &lt;a href="https://soldernerd.com/posts/mppt-solar-charger-design/" &gt;MPPT Solar Charger&lt;/a&gt;. In the mean time I have built a prototype and also wrote some software for it. So today I&amp;rsquo;ll go through my findings of what works well and what needs to be improved. And yes, there are some flaws in the design&amp;hellip;&lt;/p&gt;</description><media:content xmlns:media="http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/" url="https://soldernerd.com/posts/mppt-solar-charger-testing/feature.jpg"/></item></channel></rss>
