Hi Guys,
Well xmas is always special here as it's the day we officially moved on to the farm and today marks 5 years. We've gone from a pultry solar array that was on the house when we bought the place to a 3kw/hour pv array which has been rock solid now for over 4-1/2 years.
My shed is also fully powered by RE and i'm nearly there getting a full blown RE machineshop going. Today I converted my toolroom lathe to 3 phase/vfd drive and my bridgeport mill also has a VFD. The next vfd project is my 4' centre lathe then the surface grinder.
The 2hp motor conversion is also well underway and now I'm waiting for the neo's to get here before I can go much further.
All in all the last 5 years has been great and I expect the next 5 to be even better.
Merry Xmas everyone and have a safe holiday
Cheers Bryan
