I thought these might be for shielding because they were not connected at the motor end and had lugs at the controller end. I should have noted how they were connected before I started ripping everything apart (Dooh). Another thing, this is currently another one of my plywood specials, so electrically, everything is hanging in space. Once I get things mostly sorted out I will make a proper steel housing. -- Kirk Wallace (California, USA http://www.wallacecompany.com/machine_shop/ Hardinge HNC/EMC CNC lathe, Bridgeport mill conversion, doing XY now, Zubal lathe conversion pending Craftsman AA 109 restoration Shizuoka ST-N/EMC CNC) ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by the 2008 JavaOne(SM) Conference Don't miss this year's exciting event.
