Re: Graziano lathe and rotary phase converter
if you have one of the large metal finned rectifiers, selenium, its proably bad, replace with a new 50v 20 amp full wave bridge or one of the power supplys we talked about.

Re: Any way to calculate the center point of this bend?
look up conduit bending.. edvery bend will have shrink or gain. as eletricians we do a test bend having marked the staring point then so the stub is the legenth we want adjusted that dimension and marking our handel with the final distance for that tool. do the same with your tool https://dengarden....
