    Good evening.
    Anyone installed an hour meter on their CNC?

    what do you want to measure?
    total on-time or spindle on-time?

    I hadn’t thought that far, but what I had in mind was some measure of “running” time. So spindle on-time would probably be the closest.

    Just wondering if I could get a small hour meter and install it between the power source and the tool.
