    Accurate indexing on a rotary axis

    I am not really sure how to ask this, but I will try. I have been trying to figure out a good method to be able to pull a part from the rotary axis them lock it back in place later accurately. I have been thinking about maybe some sort of jig with an index pin of some type and them figuring out...

    A grade vs AAA grade maple

    I have always wondered about the 4 oz deal. Is this with tip - ferrule and insert if needed? A local cue maker here claims if it is under 4 it is no good but he uses brass inserts on pretty much everything. They weigh about .3oz. A lot of my wood thread shafts are coming in around 3.75 and I...

    Question for mach users or cnc in general

    Do you prefer your software to control spindle on - off as well as rpm? Or would you rather a switch and potentiometer? In the past I have always used manual but setting up a mini raptor and unsure of which router to take. Definitely easier to setup the manual mode but seems convenient to have...

    Some wrecker services will transport machinery. I called around a while back and it was $200 or less. There are many youtube videos on building some pretty nice little machine skates too once you get it there.

    Tip source

    Anyone care to share their source for purchasing tips at decent prices by pm? I have a bunch of Tom's and some precision plus the typical non layered varieties but I get requests from local guys wanting kamui-tiger-predator. The place that makes plastics is pretty high on tips it seems. The...

    Anyone want to spread some chuck education

    I just picked up my enco 12-3? lathe and it has a 4 jaw independent chuck on it.

    Picked up a new toy today

    He called it a 13-40 but it is identical to a grizzly 9249 which is a 12-37. I do not really anticipate tapering anything full length on it. I have a little cnc taig based taper machine that I built. I may build a taper setup for it to do manual wrap grooves though. DZ shows one that he built...
