I am cross posting this question to several forums. I have 2 Proform MC-60 treadmill motor controllers, one of which is currently running my X2 mill with its...
I have done a few. Did you clip RPS3? Not all MC60s are created equal so a full model number and maybe a pic of the component side of the board would help. I...
A few weeks ago the head shifted around on my round column mill and caused a Y axis shift of 0.02". This shift was due to hogging steel during side milling....

... That machine is on a promotion for $1995 with free shipping until month's end and Enco sent me a 15% off coupon last week. At that point the voices in my...
A very dear friend gave me a set of Everede midget boring bars some time back. The bars use inserts made from triangular 7/64" bar stock. The inserts were...
