Re: [CAD_CAM_EDM_DRO] Re: Re: Re: Dead Grizzly speed control/VFD

Mine is identical, so I'll try the same.

Do you tap using CNC, or manually with your mill? I assume you would
need some
shaft position feedback (and control) to tap with CNC, or can you just
start it spinning at
the right rate and send it downward at the prescriped rate?

Thanks again,
