How Would You Upgrade An Old Ox CNC Build Into A Serious Machine?

Re the VFD setup PD014...

I have mine set quite long as my entire shed, air-con included, runs off a single 16A breaker. It is then necessary to add a delay to the G-code for each job after the spindle start command to allow it time to run up before it starts cutting. I use a 6 second delay (G4 P6).

Don't know if your using mach3 or not but for anyone else who does then there is a setting in the spindle settings to do just this. You can set a delay for both ramp up and ramp down before G-scode gets processed. Saves messing around with editing G-code
