• Scam Alert. Members are reminded to NOT send money to buy anything. Don't buy things remote and have it shipped - go get it yourself, pay in person, and take your equipment with you. Scammers have burned people on this forum. Urgency, secrecy, excuses, selling for friend, newish members, FUD, are RED FLAGS. A video conference call is not adequate assurance. Face to face interactions are required. Please report suspicions to the forum admins. Stay Safe - anyone can get scammed.
  • Several Regions have held meetups already, but others are being planned or are evaluating the interest. The Ontario GTA West area meetup is planned for Saturday April 26th at Greasemonkeys shop in Aylmer Ontario. If you are interested and haven’t signed up yet, click here! Arbutus has also explored interest in a Fraser Valley meetup but it seems members either missed his thread or had other plans. Let him know if you are interested in a meetup later in the year by posting here! Slowpoke is trying to pull together an Ottawa area meetup later this summer. No date has been selected yet, so let him know if you are interested here! We are not aware of any other meetups being planned this year. If you are interested in doing something in your area, let everyone know and make it happen! Meetups are a great way to make new machining friends and get hands on help in your area. Don’t be shy, sign up and come, or plan your own meetup!

Well colour me shocked... my vfd has apparently shipped.
I ordered a parallel port card on May 12, shipped today, it and the VFD are schedule to arrive Tuesday.
Suddenly I am awash in projects!
 
Those old links point to $130-$170 - there's a 99$ alternative, bit I'll look for a while to see if any come down in price.
 
I scanned all VFDs on amazon.ca, and there were a few really cheap ones - one 380V and one 440V - the best price I could find was the 99$ one today.
 
Thanks, John, for the link - for a few dollars more, it looks far more capable. I just want one for this 1 HP 3Ph motor I got on a super deal.
 
Mines is going to power the 1/3 hp coolant pump for the surface grinder.
