Hi Hoss,

A few posts back you mentioned that you were thinking of putting an encoder on the spindle motor. Most of assumed that would be used for rigid tapping. I was wondering if you would mind to share your thoughts on that subject. I can visualize how most of it will work but the spindle motor kind of shuts off or is seeking at around 500 rpm which seems like a problem.

Thanks
Sean

Mine will go down to 254 rpm. There is a pot on the controller board that will lower that even more if needed.
I'll wait till I get the belt drive back on to set the low speed minimum.
I gotta get the thing cnc'ed before I bother with this stuff though.
