Lathe VFD?

Don't you think that's well worth the cost, considering how much time you've spent trying to find other less than perfect alternatives. :oops:

The Scott's are proud of their penny pinching ways. But I'm pretty sure they inherited that trait from my Viking ancestors.

Besides, I don't have to put a dollar value on my time anymore. Instead, time is my life now and I can't think of many things I'd rather do in what little of that time I have left.

Haha!! Ok, but you're saying you'd rather fritter away trying to make it work, rather than making stuff with your lathe:p

Don't be putting words in my mouth you!

I'm not even disconnecting my current motor and controls till everything else is worked out. At most, I'll lose a day or two of machining time.

In the meantime, solving the problems is what I enjoy doing when I'm too tired to do anything else.
