    VFD help please [Solved]

    No thank you and everyone else for the help! ill check them out as i do definitely want to build a new "pendant" being that i can't afford £100 for one off the shelf. I have a pot that sounds very similar but its 20k and looks like i would probably ruin it trying to open it and replace the chip...

    VFD help please [Solved]

    @Sideways Absolute star, you got it spot on; i had max speed set to 50rpm 😂 Somehow every time i read it, i read "if 10=0" but its "if 10>0"... Its working just fine now! That said the pot does need replacing as it still does nothing but thats easy enough thank you ever so much again

    VFD help please [Solved]

    As per the title, ive been having some issues with an invertek vfd and wondered if anyone might have seen something similar; im hoping its the just speed pot but a little worried the motor is dying and currently a friend is borrowing my multimeter.

    Wadkin routers

    Afternoon, I'm looking for some information on the controls for the Wadkin routers for anyone that has one; is there much to them or a box with on, off and speed? I've been looking for a decent used router for a while to convert an AGS10 to a router table and am considering the viability of...

    You know when you spot something on ebay, listed wrongly and think you're on to a winner.

    Sometimes it just happens.. about 8 months ago i found a Wadkin BGS12, misnamed, mis spelt and with only a few terrible pictures on the bay.. Managed to get it for £300 but the guy called the next day to let me know the boss had leased out the whole yard, machines inc, and we was taking...

    Pillar drill

    I missed one of these local for £30 a few days ago :cry: I'd say around £200 in that condition max though. The price they have is ebay prices with fee's considered etc and better condition in general..

    Note to self; stop buying big things!

    Anyone else have eyes bigger than their shed or is this just a me issue? 😂 Picked up a union graduate today and its not till you get home you think about where it goes.. Sometimes the price is just to good to say no; the only kind of price i can afford for a hobby! Building something bigger...

    Welder advice

    As others have said it really depends on what you want to weld.. I picked up a 180 oxford oil cooled stick unit for £30, its a workhorse, they last for ever and i would highly recommend them but i dont dont do any bodywork or sheet material; would melt it if i did.
