Hello folks,

I have a pretty old Dynamite, from which I have discarded most of the electronics, and tried to fit Rhonmac drivers to my 4 pole steppers. They did not like it, and I am now fitting Nema23 motors with latest Rhonmac control box.

I have also just bought a Denford Orac lathe which I also intend to strip out the electronics from - but I can't get the rack of boards etc out. Short of using a hammer, does anyone know the secret? - its a bit like a ship in a bottle!

I'm told that the lathe more or less hinges at the back, so supporting the bed, undoing the front and flopping it over the back seems to be the way. No details, as I haven't actually done it, but I'm assured that's the way to go.
Mind yer fingers/toes/whatever...
