you are absolutely correct as have been the many others to say the same thing but what do we know, we knew what an encoder was already before last week.;) those that don't know anything about cnc and...

exactly, the way he is doing it is funked up and NOT the conventional way it's done by the VAST majority here. he needs to pay attention to all the videos shown and see that the typical way is what...
listening to his customer base is exactly what he is doing. in case you didn't notice most of the people here like what he's been proposing, you are the only one who is against it. that is nothing...
lol, we're talking about a power drawbar not a paint sprayer, the cfm requirement would be very low. depending on the size of compressor you got you might hear it run once at the start of the day....
lol, he bashed r8 and tts in defengs thread.:rolleyes: tts is a joke with the hp of spindles being planned here, don't even think of going down that road, it's been done by tormach and people...
great, now when you start experiencing the bugs that are prevalent in ver .066 or you want support from tormach for this unsupported version you may want to keep the link i gave you and just install...
no no no, don't listen to him he doesn't own a tormach. get the latests software for your machine provided by tormach that you know are recommended by them and warrantied. 3.043.066 is buggy too....
skyfire is deaader than a doorrnail whether people will admit it or not. took their money and ran.
i see no pics on page 1, page 6 is one pic of part of his unfinished machine, previous pics are of other machines not his. i look forward to what he intends to bring to market.
hmmm, i see a couple posts by me being a proponent of 3d cad design and enthusiastic about tkamskers build. i see you complaining about discussions that don't interest you i.e. regulations and going...
german design is well known worldwide for quality and craftsmanship, the chinese often try to steal that design but don't back it up with quality craftsmanship. looking forward to hearing about...
lol, yeah kamsker must be busy building a prototype from cardboard and paper mache so we can get an idea of what he's intending to build.:rolleyes:
lol, get with it, many things built today including planes and cars people ride are are completely designed and tested in cad, no prototypes needed. you'd learn FAR more from the design this way than...
you forgot the skyfire too, lol.
3d cad is very easy for us to envision the final product, get with the times, designs can be completely tested in cad, gluing styrofoam together is a joke.
lol, i think the only thing that will help is a trip to a psychiatrist, you are fighting a battle with no end in sight. learn to accept that good enough is good enough. wasting 6 hours for a couple...
yeah that's why this process is usually the last one chosen when all else fails if tap extractors, picks and the welding rod methods fail and the part would be scrap anyway with the tap still in...
yes really. shars.com - 112quot Precision R8 End Mill Holder
thanks md for being one of the ones that is here to pass on your knowledge no strings attached unlike the unscrupulous few....
too funny. and they work on commission too don't they.;)
seriously you can't understand why? money that's why. if you want a lathe with a full gearbox spend twice as much money. some have partial gearboxes like the grizzly you mentioned, you can get a...
lol, you are in one extreme case of denial friend. accept the fate that it will never happen and move on with your life.
yes indeed, they recommend 8 gigs or more. SOLIDWORKS System Requirements | Windows and Mac | SOLIDWORKS
seriously dude what is your problem, you seem to have to argue with everyone. he's telling you what he has done on HIS machine and what has worked very well from the sound of it. who the hell cares...
how about getting an indicator and physically checking the axis' for slop and backlash to narrow down or eliminate a possible cause, inspecting the machine wouldn't take very long and would be better...
best to ask some questions first to make sure, could be slop in the x axis from a turcite failure that would be specific to tormach for example. would imagine it's for a tormach since he posted here...
you ARE asking about chatter on a tormach correct? different machines can have their own peculiarities.
i've tried to help but you seem dead set against taking advice. i use bobcad/cam for drawing the part and generating the gcode mach 3 turn can use. fyi, if you call bobcad don't accept the face...
no you don't know what CAM is because you still think you can go straight from CAD to a gcode file that mach 3 can use. CAD won't output a file that will run on mach 3, there has to be cam program...
see that's your problem, there isn't lathe CAD, like i said any CAD can be used to draw the part or profile you want. CAM is the software that takes the drawing and creates the gcode and there are...
did you ever think that the place to ask what people are using for cad for their lathe conversions is the forum discussing lathe conversions? you're asking about cad for a specific purpose not just...
