If you notice my South Bend lathe thread I just installed a KB SCR drive with braking and reverse. I was using the lathe last night and it works very well. It is only noisy when changing speed. I think this could be a problem on long facing cuts when I might change speed to maintain SFPM. I plan on keeping this controller for now and see how it goes. In the mean time I will look out for a deal on a PWM controller. I will certainly update this thread if I make any changes. I wonder if there would be interest in someone writing a tutorial on DC conversion in general as a reference?
The servo concept still intrugues me. Check this out!
