    Default Free: Bridgeport Electricals

    I've acquired a Bridgeport and in preparation for converting to a VFD I've pulled the current internals out.

    I've never seen the machine running so no idea if any of this is any good or it's cactus.

    The isolator has signs there has been a fault at some stage. I've assumed this was something to do with the power feed as this wiring had been cut away and the motor removed (and I assume tossed due to not realising how stupidly expensive they are to replace).

    Pick up Newcastle.

    Hi Guys,

    Those transformers are notoriously hard to get, and are very useful !

    Browny....I and a mate are at the tail end of a restoration of a Bridgeport. It has a belt change speed control. Would you be able to box all those bits you have and post it up to Tamworth? I am happy to cover your "out-of-pocket" expenses.
    Just do it!

    Kind regards Rod
