After hacking to 150ipm, gaining Linux access and dropbox. PathPilot is more than 2x better than Mach 3, and I may even stop saying bad things about my Tormach in my videos. I honestly feel like I...
I started the craze of Qualichem. (Yes,Grimsmo got he idea from me, but took it as his own....) I went with 291 because I do mostly Titanium, however it works great on any metal I've used. It is...
Why come ruin my thread? What's the point? I didn't know what I was seeing because countless others didn't either. UNTIL Mesa came along with an idea (because it's their board) - I didn't hear you...
I came out alive and VERY happy Lee.
As for "hacking" - You don't know my background, but I've been in computer labs with CIA, FBI, DOD, etc... This is a form of hacking, no way around that. It's...
Do you have your limit switches turned off in settings?
I agree, Mesa rocks!
Thanks! and if you want Dropbox too... https://instagram.com/p/73GvqxlUAb

If it's based on linux cnc then it should be easy. I never used it myself tho
As for the rest, Just use soft jaws, then it doesn't matter what is going on with your table (or put a fixture plate...
Awesome support! Thank you! THAT is customer service at it's finest. Yes, I'll take jumpers, i'll message you.
EDIT: Video Uploading, and will be here soon - https://youtu.be/bcmcPAwY2sU

Well.... JUMPERS FIXED IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! https://instagram.com/p/702U21lUHn
what a day... Now to get some proper jumpers
I never originally messed with anything, so no, not 200. Never 200, not even with Mach.
1, The inside of the pc is VERY clean, no dust or anything, I'll try to clean the contacts.
2. That makes...
I "unlocked mine" by hitting Alt+shift at bootup. Then finding the correct config file.

It's very simple, the best approach is to not think about, or worry about it. Your cam will take care of it.
Zero on the top of softjaws, now draw and mill them to be step jaws (zero at the same...
Make your Z zero the bottom of the plate, NOT the top of the plate. Many people don't realize this, but this way the thickness will be exactly what you want after you face the material/part.

I have been making money to buy a Robodrill, then once I got that Father's Day weekend, I've been learning that.

I agree, I was comparing what I knew you could do to mach, vs what I DIDN'T now you could "easily" do to PathPilot. Is there a thread on this? I also didn't know you could transfer files over WiFi...

Softjaws, I have at least 40 videos on Soft Jaws alone if you need ideas.
You modified the stock Path Pilot, which is WHY yours isn't slower. (I didn't see an easy way to do that) Pretty sure stock Path Pilot is at or slower than 110ipm. I didn't feel like figuring out how...
I've dealt with it aswell. I turned down my acceleration a few notches, haven't seen it happen since. Of course you have to use SETSYS (Unlocked Mach), instead of the one Tormach gives you to use......
Just installed the fenner belt, when new it was 69db, and sounded terrible. Took it off and put back on my old Mitsubishi belt and now we are at 64-65db. Things are breaking in, I LOVE it!!!
$60? I think I had to modify the bracket that holds it to fit the PC it went into.
I've only rebuilt around 1000 motors, but they were GE motors and I don't know the origin. (From GE 1.5 MW...
I don't have a fancy DB mic, and the phone used to measure was an "iphone" which I don't even like in my house.
No Matter, numbers aside. the noise from the day I bought my Tormach, to today is...
I made a spindle pulley that should get me to 9-10k rpm with stock motor. Why do you need higher HP? Your main casting can't handle more HP really.... If you need more HP, sell the Tormach and get a...
If you had a new machine this mod would give you the lower sound and vibration hands down. They can't "apply" the bearing change mod, however they can sell an electric fan kit. No matter what, with...
oh haha, ok. I'm sorry. I'm with you. Read too fast. I owe you a beer.
