    Good for you !!

    I've long advocated this style of safety switch for lathes and tablesaws. It's really satisfying to see someone do such a professional job of designing and mounting one. Well done !

    Very nice work! I want to do something like this on my lathe. One minor item--the common ground screw in your metal electrical enclosure should have a star lock washer. This will ensure that it cuts thru the paint to ground the box.
