There was an article or maybe two (and a later correction) starting in
MEW issue 108 on the construction of an electronic hobber - the basis
of the one that John Stevenson runs.

Can anyone email me a scan?

Thanks

Charles

If anyone has these articles, I would be very pleased to receive a
scan too. I have been mulling over such a concept and was not aware
that the articles existed.

I have all the info here with a view to putting a kit together, but there did
not seem to be enough demand. If there is then I'll brush off the dust and
have a go.
John's original prototype is on the shelf here ;)

Could be interesting but different mills will require slightly
different hardware/encoders.

What is "enough" demand?

No so.
The same encoder can be fitted to any mill it's just the gearing that
has to run the encoder at 4,000pps
so if you have a 2,000 count encoder you need a 2:1 step up

Charles, check your Yahoo email.
