thanks Sam . I was checking out some of your videos and came across that one just a little while ago . I didn't watch the whole thing yet but it looks very thorough , I saved it to my bookmarks and...

thanks Sam . I was checking out some of your videos and came across that one just a little while ago . I didn't watch the whole thing yet but it looks very thorough , I saved it to my bookmarks and...
that bore cycle is super cool . I've seen your previous videos for this type of thing and there is no way I can watch them without at least one immediate replay .
crazy glue is great for broken...
Being more specific helps lol , I look at the whole site as a forum . The site was pretty screwy for a couple days before hand so I thought it was all tied together
I have to agree , spammers...
after all these years your going to shut this down ???
right on dude will do
I forgot to mention something with the manual push button controlled turret . It will be easy to mount a switch on the lathe , and add into the program to tap the switch with the carriage to to do a...
Sam If you have a spare to send then ya let me know your price
I have no idea of how I did that damage . mine looks to be stamped to and I'd expect it to bend if anything . It broke at the top...
I was running my lathe tonite and remembered I said I'd post a vid (it's been a while) It's a bit fuzzy because my phone has a mind of it's own . For as simple of a part that it is , it's been ...

once again it's a matter of opinion and who you talk to , I've done numerous methods on high end and lower end milling machines and what I said earlier is what I stand by for many reasons ,...
Suppose that depends upon who you talk to . Over the years I've done a lot of fast material removal rates on steel , and my preference is less depth at very high rpm's with high feed rates , which...
the likelihood of successfully cutting steel on that router like that is slim to none . Knock your depth at least in half . There's a misconception to always climb mill on a cnc , it's especially so...
There is still alot of young blood flowing into the trade , it's not just the previous skilled . When I said top dollar I was talking about top dollar within the trade . the 20/hr was stated as a...
A lot of us have created our own shops
Shops still pay top dollar around these parts , a button pusher basically starts at 18-20/hr .
Low cost cnc's will help some companies that make low...
That is absolute horse **** . You seem to paint a blanket picture of the cnc industry as being nothing but making millions of tiny bs parts at a time , you clearly have no clue of what has taken over...
China is responsible for cheap low quality parts . There are a lot of fields that still need high precision quality parts and that stuff does not go to China . They can't be trusted to get the proper...
I've said this many times before , China's growth was handed to them by the manufacturers . I've been seeing the saying ' China stole our work " for years now . To many companies had it too good for...
I'd buy it without hesitation . the cabinet the the mill is sitting in is worth that price
I saw that .An error message would be good . I'm glad to see those being implemented . I've got an ethernet board and a couple uc100's that have been waiting on this option .
have the issues with the g41 g42 been resolved . Last I saw on their forum - there were issues with it not creating a proper path and it was causing gouging
what are you basing that shipping price on . My 1400+lb mill costs 2 thirds of that . When the company was in Canada I paid $900 , now that they moved to the US , I was recently quoted the same...
rpm turns on the coating ??
A standard end mill with a coating on it is still a standard end mill . It's no different than trying to drag race a lada against the big blocks , you can replace...
3hrs of sleep / night over a week period and this is what happens
I think the ads on the forum distracted me from the proper subject
Edit , skip everything I said . I thought it was about the zone . sorry bout that
Site looks fine to me . May want to consider what I said about the https though , it's a painless enough thing to...
not sure how much higher the forum needs to be ranked for indexing . As soon as I punch in cnc then google starts to display cnczone immediately . I think the volume of users is what is keeping the...
too many variables to create a study based on those items mentioned . Experience and common sense usually prevails . The method I posted previously is proven to be the best method time and time again...
I think there is still some space for a few more ads
Is the lathe complete ? if so then check out this thread http://www.cnczone.com/forums/emco-lathe/186598-machinist-software.html . The linuxcnc works great and no mods necessary
EDIT
I pulled what I had to say because I nearly forgot how poisoned the bobcad forum can be .
