Just wanted to show my troubles in the world of CNC
Well I've been busy lately so I finally get home and start on my CNC retrofit of a Bridgeport series II interact. This morning I was testing out to see if my Main spindle motor was working.
Powered everything up and a Faint "Hum" from the motor and no spin. Turns out I blew a fuse. Nothing big right? try again? same thing
I start to Ohm out the phases in the motor....and find out one of the three phases is shot. Wonderful... SO I knew what I had to do, OFF WITH IT'S HEAD
So I did and here's some pics of my adventures today.
