Haha actually I did but it was for a new Tension compression tap head, some tapping collets, and some more TTS tooling. I am anxious to get this stuff and try it out on my Lathemaster RF45 CNC mill since I recently got the sensorless vector drive and 3hp motor setup with reversing working. I cannot wait to see it do a CNC tapping operation. I also picked up one of the analog dial indicator mounted TTS toolholders for zero setting. I have been using a short shank solid bit in a TTS collet holder and using the paper method to set my zero but this should make it both easier and more accurate as well as free up that collet holder for a cutting tool. I also noticed that they have a nice digital edgefinder on the site. I seriously thought about buying it and converting it into a probe with a lead to the controller. Anyone here have this thing and might have possibly tried this? How is the accuracy of it?
Anyways, I will try to post here some pics and video of the tapping head once I figure out how to use it and let you guys know how it works if you are interested. I really like the TTS system tooling and it has made running parts much easier on my mill. If I picked up that digital edgefinder I can also free up the toolholder I am using currently for my starret analog edgefinder. Getting quite a collection of tooling now and it is sure nice to be able to keep tools loaded and ready to go without swapping cutters around all the time. If anyone is interested you can see my machine in my build thread on the benchtop machines forum called " finally getting started" Thanks and peace
