Thanks, I didn't realise that was the manufacturer's name, just something relevant to that particular control panel lol

Conect used to make lathes as well, I have one here that came out of a school in Scotland. I think they mostly supplied schools and universities.
Regards the control box then most of that stuff is from the Arc and you would be better off starting again with a new controller and drives. This will transform it into a different machine and be much more reliable.

Yes I realise that thanks Dean but was just seeing if it would be possible to save some money to start out, looking at the cost to buy the machine & then what I need to buy to rebuild it & get it up & running then it might be beyond my budget at the moment. Will have to give it further thought.
