Looks like you're doing a fantastic job - and thanks for all the pics - it really is fascinating to see a real CNC machine with the covers off.

Waycovers, Y-axis ballscrew cover, side covers, linear covers, you-name-it covers. All are as
new and assembled.




Freshly painted chip bin.


The front roller doors got new 8mm cast acrylic (Plexiglas) windows. New 10mm cast acrylic side
sliding windows. Also installed new aluminum tube handles on all doors and control box.


All components were cleaned, repaired or otherwise brought to as-new condition.


These I think, got even better than OEM. I made all new CAD drawings for the panel layouts
and ordered new engraved laminate panels. Also had to make new 1.5 mm alu backing plates.


The finished panels assembled.






Also made an exact CAD drawing for the FV-800 sticker, but ordered a red one instead of
green to highlight an "upgraded" machine.


It was not much dust inside the control box, but I got it real clean now.


New pressure regulator / oil mist unit, new line connectors and all electro-magnetic valves
were dismantled and checked. At bottom is the one shot oiler for the ways / ballscrews.
