Hi Keld That looks a useful bit of equipment. I've been thinking about building something similar. I noticed you had a two pin plug. Are you thinking of adding an earth (ground) connection? Russell |

A handy little table saw Ksor :thumbup: I recognise that motor ! It would have originally had resilient mounts on each end - see the castlations on the hub ? There would have been a female rubber piece that clamped around them to give slight movement. |

The standard configuration was a 5 mb 'fixed platter' and a 5 mb removable one, both on the same spindle. A not entirely uncommon fault was for the heads not to retract properly, and then the customer try to pull the removable disk out with attendant destruction :) Oh happy days ! |
