Went out to the shed this weekend, managed to be quite productive even though our Grandson stayed over on Saturday night so we made a skittle board and painted a clock face too. Good lot of blanks made and wood cut in preparation for turning, while he was painting.

Onto the lathe after he went home and BOOM... thought it was the on/off switch, as it has went before.. Nope

Out with the multimeter and it was the switch control box PCB, phone Charnwood and they only offer the full box at £65!!!!
BTW it is a 18 month old W821 midi lathe....

Is there somewhere that offer the PCB only or anyone know of a similar one that can be fitted?:pray:
