I am more and more inclined to make a special machine for the purpose. Anyways still contemplating it.

Nevertheless i have to start buying. So i decided to go backwards. The spindle first.

Need some help with the choice:

Now the big question is 3kw or 2.2kw spindle? I am more inclined to the 3kw. As a brand name inverter will be expensive this size, i am looking into the chinese vfds. Are they reliable enough, Dean mentioned somewhere that now they make them good. Should i know how to distinguish them or what? I see some have aluminum backs some not.
