    BANDIT CONTROLLER... anybody?

    I have six stepper driver cards and two voltage regulator cards from a couple of Bandit controllers. (They all have the large heatsink in the back.)

    Also available, six large stepping motors to run a knee type CNC mill.
    (Motors are matched to the drivers.)

    These would make marvelous spare parts for somebody who still uses the Bandit controllers on a Bridgeport or Excello type mills.

    Everything was in working condition when the machines were pulled out of service.

    Send me a PM if you are interested.

    Did you bother to figure out the purpose of this forum before posting?

    The purpose of this forum

    Sorry Friend.

    I thought that helping somebody who might have an older Bandit controller, to pick up some spare parts for the cost of shipping...

    Never mind...
    My mistake!

    You will have better luck posting a classified ad or at least postng to a forum that is oriented around the type of mill that can use your parts.

    If you don't mind my asking why did you post to this forum? It seems like a lot of folks submit posts here that are totally unrelated to the products that Little Machine Shop sells and I'm curious about the reason.

    Because people are too lazy to actually look at the description of the forum they post it in. Just like the one below that figured his mini-mill CNC conversion just might fit here, rather than the BenchTop Machine forum where it would more logically go.

    That's what I figured but even a casual perusal of the list of forums should make it obvious that a little thought and exploration is needed to find a good forum to post in. But it seems that almost all of them have only one or two posts here, so maybe they found this particular sub-forum through a Google search and are totally unaware of all the other forums/sub-forums.

    Even then, common sense would suggest that a brief perusal of the forum should be made before posting.

    That pretty much covers it.
