Oh Blimey I bought a CNC Lathe !!!!

awemawson:
Separate the coil from the contact pack

awemawson:
Open up the contact pack and carefully clean each contact with a scalpel. You could get special contact cleaning slightly abrasive pads for this job, but I've not seen any for years!

Test operation before replacing !

awemawson:
Then pop it back in. Whole operation took just over an hour - now there are a further how many relays  :bang:

However glad to say it's cured the chattering so a bit of progress  :clap:

lordedmond:
another step forwards on the journey


congrats on getting the drawing with the same date as the machine it will help i am sure

vtsteam:
Glad the relay is functioning again, awmawson! :thumbup:

I still use the old writing paper trick -- slid between contacts held closed for cleaning carbon from breaker points on my old tractors, and I have a point file or two in case of spikes and pits. I think you can still buy point files here at automotive supply stores.
