The table build

So confused?
I was told to get pwn 80mm spindle 110v air cooled.
The lead time is 4-6 weeks.
This because it’s is configured to onefinity pro controller.
Here there is no extended warrantee available from Assurion on amazon
I was told that your spindle is not plug and play.
And i would need to rewire it and configure settings to work with onefinity.
It’s as though i am buying a machine and building it myself!!!
Pwn offers an iot so tat this additional box can turn on/off other devices like a dust collector.
Your thoughts?
What did you do?
Please help… Dam 516 582 5437

Hey Dan,

continuing off-topic initiated by @abrteguy:

PwnCNC’s kit is the only offer that I know for a plug-and-play, ready-to-use spindle/VFD kit. That is why Onefinity refers to it when offering their 80 mm spindle mount (although Onefinity does not support spindles). Daniel @PwnCNC offers different variants of the spindle/VFD/enclosure, among them is one for Original/PRO/X-50 Onefinity (uses serial Modbus interface to communicate with the VFD), and another one for Onefinity Elite/MASSO (controls VFD by analog voltage for spindle speed and a VFD’s programmable input terminal for spindle FWD run and stop).

However in his spindle FAQ, he explains that he does NOT offer a kit with 110 V 2.2 kW, for the same reasons I elaborated to you in my private message: At 110 V you would need double the current, double the wire gauge and double the fuse size than with 220 V, and there is no such domestic power supply in North America for 110 V.

That is why Daniel @PwnCNC offers different ready-to-use spindle/VFD kits in an enclosure, but NOT a 110 V 2.2 kW kit.

If you want a 80 mm 2.2 kW spindle, use 240 V on a NEMA 6-30 or a NEMA 14 socket.

DISCLAIMER: I have no personal experience with PwnCNC spindles and VFDs.

Can anyone provide accurate dimensions for the Foreman QCW T-Track cross section.
I’ve just placed my order and it will be several months until I see the Elite Foreman.
My drawing is basicly (best guess)
Also the diameter of the tubes would be very handy

And for those who prefer mm

Do you have a good contact/source for the extruded aluminum, by chance? I want to enclose my Elite foreman, and was considering using the extruded aluminum and plexi approach; but, pricing was far above using MDF/2"x4"'s. :slight_smile:

NO sorry just getting from Amazon and yes aluminum + plexi is a few $$

Tim, What was your order number? I am impatiently waiting for order 45551 (Elite Foreman ordered Jan. 9). I have started to build a torsion box table (68" wide x 64" deep x 3 1/4" thick). I am going to mount the table on a Drew Fisher style flip top so I can roll the table away for storage.
