    You must know my fiancee very well!
    The place was spic and span long before she got home.
    (honestly, she is incredibly tolerant. I have my CNC and my whole helicopter blade business set up in our dining room!)

    Last night's project. Dont laugh at my BIG RED E STOP button. I couldn't fit the fan inside, but I am only running 24V so it should be OK. I might add it to the outside later.

    backside.
    I cut the front and back panels on my CNC router, of course.
    One switch is main power, other is switched to an outlet on the back for a light. The other outlet is switched by software to turn the spindle on and off. Lights on the front are for main power and spindle on.

    Looking Good. Do you have enough rubber to do the table and this box? I have about 3 million more pounds in my warehouse.

    More than enough left, John. I will keep that 3 million pounds in mind for my next machine.

    Very good stuff,
    as to the 'big red stop switch' the women allways tell us fellows that size is not important!
    Yeah right.
    Like the idea of filling the torsion box with rubber, very clever.
    Keep the posts coming, I'm having to start packing up my workshop (due to the fact were moving house) and am having to put all my projects on the back burner, so I'm having to watch you chaps.

    all the best

    Gus

    yukonho -- Nice looking control Box! Did you catch my cheapo find on in-line switch at Home Depot? Its red - would kill the power circuit anyway.

    Those tire bits wouldn't be colored and ready to use as mulch would they? Whooo - wait a minute - I gotta stop workin' on this house remodel project!

    Experience is the BEST Teacher. Is that why it usually arrives in a shower of sparks, flash of light, loud bang, a cloud of smoke, AND -- a BILL to pay? You usually get it -- just after you need it.

    Be careful with no fan on that Xylotex, I here they can be pretty sensitive.

    Jim, I just finished a system to screen truck buffings for landscaping but we don't do the color part. Selling to someone else for that. Cool looking stuff. If this proves out I'll have rubber in mine for sure. I sure hope it does since I can obviously get all I want and mine will be fresher than this week old stuff you see in the pics LOL.

    Highseas, I did not catch your find. I will check out home depot Monday.
    I will keep an eye on the board, it doesn't get too hot in the open and there is a bunch of airspace in the box so it "should" be OK.
    John, I didn't know that "fresh rubber" would be better, can you send me a half a million pounds of the fresh stuff? hehe
