    Try plugging the spindle into a different circuit. Not a different outlet on the same circuit, but a different circuit.




    EDIT: I should have said a different circuit from the computer.

    I've got enough flexi drive cable to move the Motor Unit to the back of the machine frame, so I'll do that for starters. If that doesn't work then I'm not sure how to go about your suggestion, as I only have one electrical feed into the Workshop.
