WOW. Extremely well thought out. I trust you designed it on CAD first and then wired it up.
Nice work. Thanks for sharing the journey with us!

Thanks Marty!

No CAD for the cabinet just months of staring at the parts with a marker pen and a tape measure.

The computer console parts (Page 2) were designed in CAD....

Wow, that is my dream machine. Makes my Bridgeport Series II look like a toy.
Excellent craftsmanship getting that together.

Is this iron readily available for retrofit? Might I inquire as to the cost of that iron?
Best of luck with that sweet machine.

Very nice!
Please post a video clip running a job and panning to the console to see the control running to the Success Stories Forum!
Show pictures of the cabinet, summarize the control, the axis motor drives/motors, and Spindle Drive and spindle motor you used?
That would be great!
Marty
