| Where to get an LCD tachometer? |

Hi folks, Does anybody know where I can pick up a simple, pre-made LCD photo-interrupter tachometer? I've seen them once or twice over the years but can't find them available now. I want to hook one up to my lathe as it's hard to know the spindle speed now that I have a VFD. I have a laser tacho but want to wire up a permanent solution. Cheers, Rich |

I don't know if these are any good, but I have considered getting one for my 16" SB that I put a VFD on. The SFM option looks interesting. http://mkctools.com/tachoptions.htm BTW - I don't know this guy, just stumbled across his products on the web. Mike |

When I added a VFD to my lathe, I got the Tachulator. Works perfectly. I wrapped the sensing pattern around the spindle inside the gearbox. Especially like the SFM function. The circuit board seems well designed and made. No problems at all. Best Stan |
