    jonathan may at some point work out an interface with mach for these type of spindles
    I'd forgotten about that, sorry! I will look into doing it again with that servo controller soon.

    I've got a bit closer with my brushless motor spindle. The chuck and ER16 collets finally arrived yesterday.
    (Edit - if you saw the comment with regard to running it from VFD ignore it)

    Still got to get a 12s 100A ESC for it and something to power it. Best I've got is a 6s 100a and 24v 92Ah VRLA battery. That'll get 3000rpm - so enough for some things.
