Sorted Electrickery

A few hours in the garage, and the switch is wired up. I put two earths on the lathe as there seemed to be scant regard for earthing in the standard layout - one in the switchbox, one in the motor..
I also need to get some 8mm threaded studding to replace the motor bolts as they are only just holding teh motor together.

As it hadnt been used for a while, there were some pop and cracks from the motor, and as I was turninng the motor off to go in and make dinner, the fuse blew! I have to expect this, which is a problem with direct on line motor switches. I will try and locate a few transorbs or other supressors to reduce tehse effects, as again there were none originally.

Lets home that there is no real damage under the cover or anything as I have a fiddle tomorrow, when I finally get aroudn to setting up the variable speed pulleys.
