I blew up old bucket-vac by putting a larger diameter hose on the
intake. This raised the air flow and the amps it drew, and apparently
tripped a one time thermal fuse about 9 minutes into a 12 minute job.

Hello Gene,
4HP peak is probably more like 2HP in actual use. They’re probably measuring
peak current draw during startup and extrapolating that to horsepower with the
clear intent to bamboozle the unsuspecting consumer. At 120V, 4x750W is 25A.

Hey guys. Got a problem with my CNC lathe
It randomally tried to run a program with the wrong tool number.
I'm using the fanucy wear offset patch to get wear offsets as linuxcnc
doesn't offer that yet as stock standard.
This lathe has done about 4000 toolchanges faultlessly.

Considering they’re designing this to run on a 15A
