Should be ok, will expect to do some fine tuning but thats half the fun i think ;)

Dave,
It looks to be identical to mine.
You are welcome to come and play with my 60 watt Chinese chappie before you part with your dosh. There's a bit about it here:

Thanks for the offer Andrew,
I think i'm fairly certain it will need work and I'm ok with that, i like to go through and fine-tune stuff anyway, its a good way to learn all the dodgy parts and i had already spotted those terrible universal sockets - i've got some IEC ones in the CNC building parts box so they will go in pretty much exactly as your one.
I put in an offer tonight, see if they take it or not :)

Ok, i ordered one this morning, fingers crossed.
Few q's for starters...
Are there any "preferred" sources of acrylic and laser-ply sheet ?
Everyone just use the pump-in-a-bucket cooler, plain water, de-ionised water, any additives?
Two things i will be getting is a 0-50mA meter for tube current and a power measuring probe/device - these seem pretty essential things for starters.

Dave you reckless devil !
I used to use a bucket & pump, but it filled up with dead spiders and flies, and I wanted anti freeze in it as mine is close to a roller shutter door. As the dogs often come and visit me I didn't want poisonous antifreeze in an open bucket - so I got one of the cooler units described in this thread:

Apart from having to replace the pump as described in that thread it's been very good.Last edited by AndrewMawson; 10-03-2017 at 04:54 PM.

Thanks, i'll look out for a chiller type unit, not too bad price on the bay but if it can be got for less then happy days ;)
Hindleys looks good, i seem to recall getting some engraving plastic from them some time ago.
Can't wait.....
