Well, sorta.
Today I got the VFD mounted, made a 12 ga. cable to plug into the wall, and ran the cables to the control box and motor.
Even managed to get the VFD programmed (I hope I did it right...). Did a test run to see if I would let the factory smoke out, but it runs perfectly. And very quietly .
I even checked the backgear to make sure it works like a BP. Yup, it does, in that forward is now reverse, and reverse is now forward. Monday Chris Bettis and I are going to get this thing off this pallet and onto it's new stand. I'm almost there...
I bolted the VFD to the smaller side access panel like Matt suggested. Not sure if I'm going to add the USB cable or not. We'll see.
I still have some cable routing to do as you can see.
