Hi All:
The VHS Taig CNC machine , on loan from Brian @Gear105 , is getting a lot of use which is great because it is an awesome tool!
Brian has been generously training many of us on how to use this machine.
So with the increased use comes increased wear and tear.
The spindle is pretty much at the end of it’s life and needs to be replaced.
A new spindle along with some extra tools and set of new collets will cost about $300 Cad.
So the ask is for funds to purchase these.
If you are interested in contributing to this please indicate below how much you’d be willing to throw in to keep the CNC in great running shape.
Regards!

Hi @Majicj ,
I sent it to “membership@vanhack.ca”, will ask them to transfer to you.
Thanks,

Please don’t send money to the space to send to members, that requires several people to dig in to the accounts. The general rule is once it’s been donated to the space, it’s the space’s.
To avoid accounting hoops keep it as a credit in my account, will adjust it against membership dues, etc.
Best,
RK
