  • Power Carving burr cleaner

    Hey all you power carvers, what do you use to clean the burned on wood from your carving bits? Some one told me to use oven cleaner, but it didn't do a very good job. ???

        I soak them in denatured alcohol for 20-30 minutes and then use a small brass brush. Works pretty good.

            Without the complete schematic it is hard to know what is correct.
            That said, it is a multispeed blower that obviously has a controller board. That board varies the power to the motor. By doing what you did you bypassed that. You put power across the low and high windings. If any thing connecting...

            The reason for the smoke is incorrect wiring, posible melted insulation between motor windings and motor frame.

            You mentioned connecting power to the red & and black wire. Did you do anything with White wire? Per the lable on the motor the black wire is high the Red is low. White common...
