Could you tell me what motor your pump uses as I am doing my 5th model a D11 and have a room problem

Looks like you are using a CNC mill? What mill, did you do your own conversion ?
About the bottom of the pan, looks like a spiral in with an end mill? Would that have been better with fewer straight passes and a fly cutter or face mill, or is this a function due to the CNC operation? Please know I am NOT a machinist, just trying to add to my limited hobby skill set.
As someone else earlier in the thread stated, PLEASE finish this. It looks great now and will be fantastic with some dirt on it!

Hey Jim ...I am using a small Taig 6 inch y travel and 12 inch x travel .Most of everything was put together ..I still had to install the limit switches and set up the machine ..some days were pretty frustrating but have a good handle on it now .the spindle motor was not quite cutting it .. no pun intended ..lol so i found a Delta bench grinder motor thats has more balls ..working well for what I need to do with it ..
The spiral in the bowl bed was done with a program option ..just set it up and walk away ..probably take less time with a bigger bit bit my collets are quite small
