Title: ekstromcarlson spindles
Post by: stirling on July 06, 2007, 04:38:43 AM

Hi - anyone have any experience of these? http://www.ekstromcarlson.com/spindle%20motors.htm

for example Motorpack 3 under http://www.ekstromcarlson.com/router_packages.htm

I'd also be interested if anyone in the UK has imported them.

many thanks

Stirling

I Have not used those. I use http://www.hsd.it/home.asp I have been very pleased with the performance. They are out of Italy and should be easy to find locally. I am sure you can find a VFD for them or they probably could recommend one. I upgraded from a heavy duty router and never looked back.  There is also http://www.pdscolombo.com/products.htm

Thanks Chad - I'll take a look - probably won't be able to afford them (stuff costs a fortune over here) but it's worth a try.

cheers
