Part is a light duty bearing of bronze/brass. Prefer bronze. Oil-lite is not suitable. OD is .1875" ID is .125" Length is .1875" one edge small chamfer Would like quote for 100pcs. ...

As it turned out, Grizzly tech support were very helpful in diagnosing that the motor is bad. With both the included fuses blown I had to hunt down fuses which turned out to be expensive $1.80 each...

I have a relatively new (May2015) G0704 and recently purchased/installed a Benchtop Precision belt drive conversion kit. The motor/controller has humming/buzzing noise and just now blows fuses. ...

I've been working on my 704 and was told that the bearing heat was normal. So far so good. We'll see......

I bought 7/16 clamping kit from Griz but the 7/16 nuts seemed too small so I...

I have been doing the break in run and am having the bearings heat up more than I have ever seen before. Just asked Grizz for info.

I just finished moving the 704 to my basement shop. I broke it down into two pieces by removing the table and even so broke a good sweat. Much heavier than the Griz mini-mill.

Now it's back...

Thanks Hoss ! The web site says 1/2" T- nuts and specify .490 but being Chinese stuff that may not be accurate. Worse part is that I have a set for a Bridgeport sitting here gathering dust. ...

I have noticed in the instructions that comes with the machine that they specify 7/16" t-nuts for the G0704 but the t-slots measure a few thou over .500. What size Grizzly t-nuts work best?

My G0704 arrived today. The machine generally looks like a lot better quality than the past two mini-mills I have had. Only one complaint so far and that is the absolutely junk drill...

NYC, Was unaware of those and will have to look. Thanks!

Interesting but pricey belt drive kit. I couldn't find any company info so am leery about purchase at this point. Have asked for more info. I wonder if any have been sold yet or if anyone here...

NYC I love that HOSS Tormac qc setup but am not sure how versatile it is. It would beat the normal R8 set up but it would mean buying a lot of special tool holders and messing around to use...

The 704 is going to be delivered tomorrow so this isn't about buying something different. I am looking for USA made belt drive if there is one.

A Griz 0704 on its way to be delivered Thursday and am thinking about mods. I hate gear drive noise (as in the mini-mill I had!) and when I read the cost of replacement gears I realized that I...

Given the description and the one screen shot it is not totally understood since I am not a guitar builder. Pockets with under cut walls are a challenge. If the surfaces aren't critical hand...

Rodney,

Thanks! Your info is very useful and was just what I was looking for!

OK, so this doesn't have anything to do with how small a shape can be cut? This has to do with laser engraving a letter (character) and it's readability?

The laser I am looking at has .001"...

I am new to laser cutting and need to know what "minimum shaping character" means.

Can anyone explain or point me in the right direction to a definition?

Thanks!

I asked one source about tube power supply etc and got a negative reply. They want to sell you a laser!

40w would probably cut anything I would want since it is doubtful I would cut more than...

Milt,

What laser do you have and where did you purchase it? Are you using Mach3 to run it?

Jack

I would like to have a 40w laser capable of cutting in a 6" X24" area. Sadly I can't afford a laser with this capability.

I was looking at various sites about building a laser and then started...

Need 500 of these Please contact me [email protected]

Bill,

They are virtually the same but you might want to go with the stand alone Visual Mill. If you have problems you won't get bounced between McNeel and Mecsoft. I use Rhinocam (and like it...

Jeff,

The board is a Mechatronics. I had it on another machine but replaced it with a Gecko250. Either I want to use these steppers for now or I have to buy 3-4 steppers. If I buy them I...

Jeff,

Thanks very much for the info on the Vexta!!!!!!!!!!!!

The pac sci has the following colors paired up

Black/white w-orange stripe
Red/white w yellow stripe
Orange/white w-black...

I have some steppers that I can't find a wiring diagram or specs for

One is a Vexta PH268-21 6 wire

The other is a Pac Sci Sigma 802D2235-F037S 8 wire

Anyone know where I can find info on...

Noel,

Thanks! Mecsoft is looking into the problem and gave me a workaround. I'd like to avoid the problem in the future though.

I have a few closed curves to cut from a wood sheet in 2.5D

I chose all the curves but Rhinocam only produces tool paths for some of them. I have added and subtracted curves and Rhinocam seems...

Rhinocam is a bargain and does a lot for the $.

I have had my share of problems with Rhinocam. I am currently trying to resolve why when curves are chosen for 2.5D Rhinocam won't make tool...

I am trying to join four surfaces that were lofted. Three of the four can be joined but the fourth won't join.

What have I done wrong that prevents joining these surfaces?

Is there a way to...
