This may seem fundamental, BUT, I'm having a problem with my plastic, wood, or ivory shifting when I'm cutting it on the cnc table. Would some of you that developed their own method to hold the work please post a picture. I'm sure I'm in the dark ages on this matter. thanks Bill

one of the problems I've found one of the problems. The table was warped. Makes sense when one side of the design was rougher than the other. Not sure if the screen display/dro shaking was that or not. I'll straighten out the table and improve the holding system and see what I've got tomorrow...

fine dust Thanks, I'm running my cnc machine for the last few hours and haven't noticed the dust. BUT, now that you've said this I went back and behold, it's dust plenty all over. I wasn't even wearing a mask because it was deceptive the amount that you see. In the future, I will change...

machine The machine is the STORM that Lee sold me from Brianna products THREE YEARS AGO and just getting it running now. Not quite the product support I get from Chris. lol

not wavy on screen It doesn't look wavy on the screen, it runs eratic but straight. Seems to run jerky but straight on the screen. I'm going to make more cuts with squares and compare because my previous squares when cut the material moved and caused problems. Not the same problem I don't...

wavy lines cut Jim, Using an old pc. I'll get back with more info asap.] I want to recut the squares I previously ran because the material shifted and I'm not sure if the cuts were clean or not. I tightened down on the material for the diamond so as to eliminate material shift.

I am cutting an approximate one inch long diamond. I am able to cut the diamond and it's almost useable. While cutting both the pocket and the inlay for the pocket the first straight line cuts wavy, then the next two are smooth and straight, then the last line cuts wavy again. It's not very...

deluxe Buy a deluxe used and get the best lathe for the money. It may take a few weeks but you'll get one. Maybe put a "WTB LATHE" in this forum. Bill

dimensions Hey, I think if you do a search you'll come up with a bunch of cuemakers giving their dimensions. Dick is precise and informative in his answer. It varies greatly from cuemaker to cuemaker. Probably no correct answer. good luck

wood would you like to sell some?

new material Love your stuff, just not in love with the colors. Are you making/mixing them? Are earth tones avialable? somehting less psychadellic? thanks Bill

attacking the union Attack the union all you want, just please don't do it in the cue machinery and supplies section. I'm looking for machinery and supplies and don't have the time to read through opinions on unions. thanks, your thoughts are well taken, just not here. Bill

chalk I used to work in a place where they made blackboard chalk. I only remember that it was in a mixer and a liquid added making it very wet like mud. Then put in an oven and dried while in molds. You probably could make it in the kitchen? If you knew the ingredients which are probably easy...

profanity Just my two cents...We're all old enough to have heard all, there are no kids that would want to enter this site. Maybe a couple, but there is that risk on TV and movies etc. The world has changed. I prefer no profanity, but I wouldn't bar someone for using it as long as it didn't...
