I bought some hardware and spent some time on making glasses that simply monitor retina movement during your final stroke. Just to catch if someone is looking up before they should be. If so you’ll see a red light on the inside of the glasses. Otherwise it’ll be green. This is doable but is...

That’s disgusting.

Customer service is so 1990s.

I can’t tell if this is tounge-in-cheek or brain-on-drugs.

I don’t do 3D printing but I am aware of them.

He has a great site. I am not interested in any type of wood working, and I play only with carbon fiber cues. But the collection of lathe parts on his site is very comprehensive. He also has some tips available for sale. Since I keep my cues in my garage the humidity / temperature variations...

Good feedback. Thanks!

My budget is $100

I am only using one bearing, and I can adjust the driving torque up to 2.5 ft-lbs if I need to. I'll just have to point a desk fan at the stepper if I do that. But even if I lose 10% to drag, 1.25 ft-lbs is still plenty for sand paper. Most cue lathes have 0.75-1.5 HP motors, which produce...

This is just for personal use. Since I already have half of the parts, for $100 it is worth just making it. I will use it about once or twice a year. The only reason I am making it is because I have a lot of motors with nothing to use them for. It would be a shame to keep letting them all sit...

Yes I mentioned I need one, though I called it a dial caliper. Indicator seems to be the more common word. I have a piece of 80/20 I can use. I just need the mounting hardware.

I purchased parts to make a homemade tip changing lathe. There are a couple other threads similar to this but their picture links are broken. I already made a speed controller out of spare parts that I had, which generates 270 oz-in (1.4 ft-lbs) of torque from 100 to 1000 RPM... I think this is...

The project is in the business plan and allocation stage (which means it is out of my hands). All design work is complete except for maybe the box artwork, and the foam design for fitting the AC adapters. The sensor manufacturers are trained and ready. I am not going to post release dates at all...

What is grade-A? Reference?

This is excellent work!!
