VFD Control Panel for Jet Drill Press (Multi-Material)

thingiverse

This replacement nose piece and control panel for the Jet JDP-17MF drill press enable mounting of a direction switch, speed control, and tachometer for VFD conversion. I have made available STL and STEP files for the replacement front housing as well as the control panel and an insert for the drum switch. The control panel and drum switch are multi-material parts with text embedded in the panel using different colors of filament. If you don't own a multi-material printer, you can print the parts with the text recesses empty and then paint them as desired.
