Currently I am not wearing any mask or using any fluid. I spray a little WD40 on the part sometimes but mostly just blow the chips off the part with plain air.

I was adjusting for backlash by using a dial gauge and using g0 x0.05 and g0 x0 to move that 50 thousands. Every time I move it using both moves, it lands on 0. That is why I think I have the backlash adjusted correctly. I can change the steps per to basically any number and if I make a + and -...

@OCD Solutions The enclosure I built has worked great for setup and practice but I think I am ready to start designing my permanent CNC enclosure. I think I would prefer a flood coolant system over a mist system. Have any recommendations on that? I'd also like to add spindle control to the...

They look good but I’m waiting patiently for the X2 post. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I'm not sure where it is coming from. I think the gauge I am using might be wrong. I was setting up my gauge and manually adjusting my steps per until the accuracy was down to .005 or less. I had done this before, after I got the machine, and my coin was coming out to 46mm on the X and 46.9mm on...

Well, as you can see by the date on the coin (4/6/21), I’m out of time. It was my goal to give Scott the first coin I ever made and I gave it my all. I tried really really hard to get tighter results. I spent a lot of time trying to get it dialed in but i haven’t been able to yet. It’s...

Upping my mounting game today. Using tabs and made my first set of soft jaws. Found 2 nice matching pieces of bar in the scrap pile so my soft jaws are about $3 (not including machine time, but that’s all practice anyway. First time using the drill operation.) Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

If that's not enough of an excuse, then how about this... If you set up a 4th axis, I will bug you about how you did it until mine has one too. Motivated now?

Can you post information about the urathane molds, the process and the best application for the parts.

I have spoke about this a lot and I believe some others have too. Well Easy Composites made a really good video explaining the process. So you can either 3d print a plug, and work it to lift a production mold. Or in the case of this video, you can 3d print a mold to use just once or twice and...

How much did it cost?

Vertical E-Track to stack them and the Cargo Trailer Camper conversion group on Facebook for camper ideas.

I overlooked that you are using a 701 and updated my pipe post above to highlight the combo I was suggesting was for a kawi 750 motor. You shouldn't have any issues using a B-pipe with the SJ motor. The issue with the Kawis is the head pipe angle. It kicks it out and it hits the hull. Using the...

Thanks. I have a Davinci pro 1.0 (200mm^3) and a Creality CR10 S5 (500mm^3). I think both use a 0.4mm needle.

That sounds like a lot of work for marginal gains. The opportunity cost is too high for a surf rider. 760 swaps make sense for blown motors and racers, but to down a good running ski to make mild upgrades doesn't make a lot of sense. However, finding a B1 that needs work and dropping in the free...

what printer?

I think it was popular mechanics where I read an article that covered the impact of wind tunnels and EPA requirements on car design. Why all cars now look the same and why so few have any meaningful style. We can't have cars like we did in the 80s because of these. I can't think of any better...
