    NM-145 With Shadowspawn Motor

    Check out the mill running 96 in/min .500cutter, Cutting .100 depth with .22 step over. Of coarse to do this you'll need a high end end-mill. High Helix 3 flute carbide from Lakeshore Carbide. Well worth the extra money!

    Gee, I get hit by a hurricane and miss signing on for a few days then finally come back and see one of my AC Induction motor conversion kits featured in a video. Nice to see the machine cutting well.

    We are still without power here, so those of you waiting for your kit will still have to wait a bit longer for me to get them finished up.

    Actually, with the conversion kit the NM-145 has plenty of power... but it takes down the entire electrical grid in the state to run it...

    We are good... been told it will be a few more days before power is restored so I'll keep buying $50 in gas each day to keep the generator going.
