Ping?  and update:  I bought another camera that I hope will be even 
better, and it should be here tomorrow according to amazon.  The motor 
arrived today, and is every bit the monster I was afraid it was going to 
be. Somewhere between 10 and 20 lbs.

About the only way I could use it on the G0704 would be to buy another 
head casting and machine it to take this motor in about the same 
location as the existing spindle occupies.  A 4 bolt and 2 cable 
changeout.  And with my back, an overhead hoist of sorts on a section of 
barn door track to hold the weight while making the switch.  And a 
removable pin scheme of some sort to restore the tram.

I made a trip to Lowes to get the 250 volt wiring hardware but apparently 
bought the wrong 2 pole 15 amp breaker for the VFD.  SquareD has two 
styles of breakers so of course Murphy was working and I bought the 
commercial version instead of the Homeline version.  They do not fit in 
each others boxes.  But I am wondering if, since the line currents are 
about 7 amps at full song, if I should trade it for a 2 pole 10 amp.  
But everything else is rated at 15.  Descisions decisions.  The booklet 
with the VFD makes zero recommendations.  Gotta luv the lawyers that 
write this stuff.

Rainer:  Any progress on a camview-emc workalike?  I should know by 
tomorrow late if the camera I bought will work with v4l2 & the opencv 
script I have.

In the FWIW category, good lighting jumps the frame rate on this 
el-cheapo camera to something around 35 FPS.  Totally realtime, but 
slightly overexposed.  See's a piece of pcb copper just fine though.
Blob detection works but slows the frame rate to half.  That is to be 
expected with the frame comparison method chosen.

The image is sharp, looks better than 640x480 but despite the imprints on 
the lens face stating it has a 10x zoom, I can find no such capability 
even if I take it apart. Its a $6 dollar camera so I didn't expect much, 
and I didn't get much.  No surprise there. :)

And that motor seems to have come with a 5mm ER16 collet, so I'll have to 
find some 1/8" and 1/4" collets.  No surprise there either since it 
didn't state on the ebay listing I bought it from.

Thank you all.

Cheers, Gene Heskett
