Hey @SemperFi77USMC,
I really like it! However, you may want to check out this thread with some info about VFDs and spindles. Essentially, you could run a 2.2kW spindle using a 1.5kW VFD to get the big collet sizes and save some dough. Totally depends on your budget and confidence with making cable assemblies. I’m wondering if this is what PwnCNC is doing already. Maybe?
That said, I went with the kit for convenience. I have 2 young kids and was able to get the spindle installed in and evening after bedtime very easily. Didn’t take long at all. The workmanship is good and I wrote some thoughts on the set-up earlier in this thread here. I recommend it for sure. I don’t have a ton of hours on it to be honest but it’s been great for the times I’ve ran it.
