If we ever did switch over I would be rewireing for years I think, no thanks. I have alittle VFD in the basement that I bought last winter when I got on a PLC fix, kinda handy 120v 1ph in and 230v 3ph out. Looking forward to getting a mill and starting on my Manitowoc dragline. One of the mechanics caught me drooling over some of the tools in the machine shop the other night. He told me to back my truckin and load it up, I wish

Thanks guys
What machine are you going to build? I have some drawings of a 4600 that I was going to build before my 9W idea came about.
