I'm selling my 2015 Tormach PCNC1100 Series 3. It's in the Los Angeles area.

Pluses:

*Only about 200 hours on the machine
*Brand new automatic tool changer
*Brand new 4th axis kit (still in...

The rack and pinion was from cncrouterparts.com - I have an early version of their CRP4896 and it is awesome and affordable. Recommended.

Cogger, me, too. I have the same breakout board and I'm wondering if you could share your XML file for Mach3, please?

Hi all,

I'm looking for a turnkey linear stage with the following specs -

1. driven by a servo with feedback. (could be a stepper, but I need PID)
2. ~12" of travel (this is negotiable)
3....

Thanks, Zax!

I've been thinking about adding many of the "pro" features myself -- many of them seem simple enough to build myself, especially since I am just finishing up an X2 conversion.

Zax, FYI the Zing series have only an 'air curtain' air assist.

I recently won a Zing in a contest, and have been scouring the web for interesting materials. I haven't tried this material yet, but I suspect it would be pretty close to what you want.

I love my...

Sorry, fixittt -- I read this thread before my morning coffee and misunderstood. ;)

Aha, that was what I was looking for. Thanks.

And yes, clamps are an option, if this fails.

Of course you're right, and if it comes to that, I will, but I am still open to any advice or suggestions.

I have a dial indicator and could center it in my mill -- if the piece wasn't 4 feet long. Sorry for not saying that earlier. It won't fit in my mill the with the end pointing up at the end mill.

I have a piece of 1/2" hardened steel rod from a printer carriage, and I want to drill and tap a hole on each end of it to mount it to a frame. I have an X2 mini mill and cheap drill press at my...

I also paid in full and have been promised refunds many times. Now that I need the money to pay my medical bills, I get no response from CNCbridges.

At this point, I am considering legal action.

By bastard thread, you mean non-standard, right?

I understand the diagram now, thanks!

I'm new to threadcutting, in fact, new to using the lathe. I just got a 7x10mini. I'm trying to understand what the thread measurement in this image means.

How would I go about cutting such...

There are two new images on cncbridges.com -- one of what appears to be the entire base kit, and another with an image of the surfacing process. I can't wait to receive mine!

If this was true, you would see that at least one (and probably only one) guy got a Z-axis kit. DeWayne has also successfully produced and shipped another product called the "fussybrush" -Google it....

seconding that -- would love to see such a document aimed at X2 users.

Hello Mr. Qi, can you post some more details here please?

A controller generates the steps and the driver boards "amplify" them to levels that actually drive a motor. You can often get boards that are a driver and a controller all in one.

Hi all.

I'm looking for dumpster/curb scavenging tips and ideas.

First off, here in Fargo, ND, we are having "spring cleaning week". You can put anything you want on the curb, and the solid...

I just ordered one of these bases the other day. I will post pictures when I receive it.
