Digispeed for Sherline system

[HZM]

Was thinking of this upgrade so that speed can be controlled via Mach 3 software.

Interesting. So instead of the normal switch the motor is wired to this circuit and it goes to the main and to the controller board?

Was looking at it too. But not sure it will work as stated.

There's also a complete mill that comes with the spindle controller built in @

I've checked with them and they mentioned that they will be selling the controller separately and that was many months ago and so far still no news.

The controller is good if you are thinking of doing some threading & stuff.

Let's us know how it works out ya?

BC, u still can do manual if you want, there is a switch to toggle. In the event u put to CNC, you can set the speed w G code.

Dam cool
