Typically the dia is the max dia of the V-bit, not very important unless doing deep carves. example from Freud, the capital "D" [ATTACH] Cheers Gary
Hi Tom, so you are measureing 24V? until you put a load on it, aka the blackbox? double check 24v pos to pos and neg to neg, also maybe try a 24v...
Hi Tom, 1) Do you have the Openbuilds PSU? make sure the black AC wire is on L, white on N.. and tight Make sure the input selector switch is set...
