The cabinet has gone, only the grinder left today Peter.

Last time I took some bits to Glennsam for tig weld. He has quite a lot of benders in the shop and making handrails for living. Maybe give him a call to see if he could help? His name is Jeff....

He is no longer the hero in my heart. I was thinking *wow, doing it at 2500rpm with one hand and that is so close to the chuck*

lets me give it a try...

PS: Wow, how did you do that without hitting the chuck!

This guy might be closer? They cut to size and buy whatever quality you want/need.

Hi Lads,

I am looking to purchase knee mill, probably about 1T. Is there any one in Melbourne that can help with this kind of moving?

Thanks
Jackaroo.

If its 3 phase then you can do it.
if single phase (and reversible) I think it will keep going on the same direction unless the motor is fully stopped then turn on reverse.

I am wondering if this I-beam be strong enough for the task?

Hi all,

Thanks

Hi Stuart,

I installed the 10k pot switch from Altronics. Changed pd2 to 1, changed the jumper to 2-3 and I can only go upto 25Hz max by using the knob.
