Any good repair man should be able to remove the insert and plug the hole. Then re-drill and tap. Make sure the diameter of the shaft at joint end is the correct size for the cue you are matting it up to. Jim.

Both the head stock and tail stock will have a morse taper. Most likely MT#2. I would get a drill chuck for the tail stock so that I could put either a 60 deg. live center or concave live center in it. Lee has them at Brianna product and he is not too far from you. He is in Quincy near Coldwater...

Look to see if there is a hole in the back of the spindle head. If so then use a steel rod that will fit the hole to pound out the spur. In the tail stock wind it quill back until the old live center pops out. This may not be easy as I see rust. Jim.

Ok, well I will point out the easy stuff. Have you confirmed that you have 110v at the outlet? Is your switch good? I recently helped my brother in law fix his dryer. He had it all torn apart for me when I got there. First thing I did was check power at the outlet. Oops. I help him change the...

Was the rage the 4 spindle machine? If so it was built very well. It had 4 kress routers on it. This will be a great machine for a production shop. Unique has updated all of their cnc machines now to run with Mach3. Jim.

Mr. D, would one Saturday a Month work for the limited basis? I don't want to bother you on the phone other wizzzze. Jim. P.S. I will bring the Bells

Good attitude I think Gary. Actually I am headed out to Vegas in the morning. One of the guys I will be out there with will know the answer to this. If I get a chance I will ask. Jim .

Gary, sounds easy. My question would be, would you use start up current or running current in your equestion? thanks, Jim.

Gary, I am not sure of the conversion and the motor does not have that information. However that sound correct. Jim.

Gary, I have tested these motors with a motor controller from: http://www.bakatronics.com/shop/item.aspx?itemid=444 I used a 24v power supply rated at 12.5A. The motor at start up drew about 10A but dropps down to between 2.5 and 3A quickly. I would if it where me use a power supply no less...

Nice find Great job on the clean up. I would have snatched that up for sure. Now you will speed mucho $ to work on cues. Jim.

Weegee, I think you would be a good candidate for a cnc machine. Do some homework first befor you decide on what you want. Let me point you in the correct direction. Both Unique and Brianna machines will run with Mach3. This is software that controles the cnc machine with your PC. There is a...

Can you tell us what it is about the Cue Monster and the Brianna units that you do not like? Both will preform all operations that you have stated. The Cue Monster is about as small a unit that you can get and the storm is very universal. There are not many others specific to cue making out...

Well Jim, I don't have your artistic abilities. Cue building is my hobby. This is what relaxes me and sometimes frustrates me to no end. If I am artistic outside of cue building, then I would say, that it is the machines that I build and the g-code programs that I have written. These are...

Kj, I gots a hole bunch of old blades. Want to do some trading? LOL, Jim.

I agree with you Mr. H. No need to go above 1200 to 1500 rpm. Jim.

I have kept tabs on what other makers are giving for Bobcad. It runs around $500 for two seats and the training cd set. You can work them harder than. If you get it cheaper let me know. Friday afternoons are there week moments since they work on commition. Jim.

Never heard of it befor. A quick search though shows up easily. http://www.progecad2010.com/index.pl?id=0;isa=Category;op=show Looks like this is good cheap cad software that does most everything. I would recommend though that if you get it and like it. You may want to concider getting Bobcad...

Great work Steve, you do great work. Do I see some elephant ear wraps there? Thanks for letting me watch you work at the SBE. I learned some great tricks on installing wraps from you. I look forward to talking with you in Vegas. I will be there again with OB cues. Jim.

? Is this a stripped down ver. of the Deluxe? I have noticed that there is no taper bar or cabinate around the Deluxe. I would guess that the head stock will move up and down the dove tail alot easier and farther. Nice setup by the way. Jim.
