¡Progress! The customed machined adaptor to use the Wolff Ergo holder with the Viel scissors jig arrived today. (Machined by James Hammons of Ace Sharpening in Kansas City; referred to me by Maxtheknife.)
My motor shaft has been machined down to .5". The motor with the new reversible switch should be ready tomorrow morning. I have mounted the bracket for the motor on the Viel frame. Mounting the motor should be a five minute project.
I will operate the Viel with the motor control unmounted for a while in order to determine how I want to mount it. I may try to incorporate a carrying handle.
The digital laser tachometer I ordered at Grepper's suggestion should be delivered tomorrow.
I hope to be up and running this weekend! Stay tuned.
