[CAD_CAM_EDM_DRO] Mill Motor trips GFI outlet

I don't understand the sentiment to ditch the GFI...

I'm by no means a safety freak, buy hey, it's only a 1/4hp DC motor. Think
of the load of a fridge, or workshop compressor, and they don't trip the
GFI. And if they do, and as in this case, find the reason, and fix that
instead.
