    To whom it may concern:

    I have two Meanwell power supplies, one for the spindle and one for the Openbuilds X32 Blackbox controller.

    I operate with 220VAC in South Africa.

    Power supply for controller is a Meanwell LRS-350-24 supply for 24 volts to the controller.

    Power supply for the spindle motor controller is a Meanwell LRS-350-12 supply for 12 volts to the motor controller.

    I would appreciate a recommended switch for each one. I want each power supply to have a switch.

    Thank you.

    I have only checked the kit I recieved now and I do not see the M3x10 spacers.

    I want to replace them. Am I correct they were made of plastic.

    I am based in South Africa and I am looking for a supplier. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

    Regards.

    Best to contact the store if anything was missing

    But Communica, Mantech, RS, Hobbytronics, maybe even Robotics.org.za should all stock M3x10mm female-female spacers.

    HP-10 - SPACER PLASTIC FEM-FEM M3x10

    Takelot has little variety kits of all sizes too

    Thank you, Peter,

    Much appreciated. I was mainly concerned it they were made of plastic/nylon.

    Thanks again.

    Does not matter :) nylon is cheapest. Brass is nicer. Whatever you can find, they just mount the front panel mechanically. Boer maak plan can work too
