    Parting an R2E4 Series II control - any interest in the complete control panel?

    I am nearing completion on my linuxcnc conversion on my R2E4. I am debating whether to sell off the complete control panel box (with the keyboard, monitor etc) or just sell of the bits inside and use the housing for a custom control panel. I know people like to buy the control panel keyboard since they wear out easily... not sure about the whole box though.

    At first I was set on throwing it out... now I think it might be a good spot to mount stuff.

    I ended up parting it out. The SFM and CRT assembly are up on ebay now. If interested you'll find them (only ones on ebay!).

    My plan is to make an aluminum panel to replace the control panel which I can add my own buttons and controls too. I'll use the existing factory feed override potentiometer, quadrature job knob, spindle direction control and e-stop.
