Some parts were out of my electrical box and others were given to me by a friend who is an electrician. All the breakers came out of upgrades. A new metal enclosure was $180 which is why I took the time to weld and panel beat the old one.

All I had to buy was the buttons on the control box, the control box, the armored cable and the lock. All up I am out of pocket to the tune of about $120. Small price for the safety and ease of use. Besides, now I know my kids can't play with it, so no worries about them killing themselves. Lathe will get similar treatment before being moved to my home shop.

That makes me feel better I get almost as much enjoyment out of my friends being able to profit by not having to spend" as I do myself.
