My go to is a 2” 45 face mill. I need to surface some 3.5” 6061 plates (1” nominal thickness). 15 hp Japanese cat 40 box way machine, mid 90s. Good shape. What say you guys? Think I’ll have any trouble pushing a 4” 45* lead 5 insert face mill? Not really concerned here with MRR, but just...

Hi all - does anyone know the thread class of fit for BP leadscrews? I searched a bit and have found dimensions of 1 1/4 x 5 acme, but no reference to thread class 2C, 2G or other. I’m doing another project altogether which will require some 2C centralizing acme nuts, and the bridgeport nuts...

Any middle of the road drill head manufacturers? Sugino and Hypneumat are very good, but of course the price matches. The chinese ebay specials are just junk. Looking to see what else is out there. New, not used, for this application, and looking for a bare bones stand alone drill head (no...

Anybody have a manual, or happen to know what type/grade of oil to use for the head? I am guessing some kind of synthetic gear oil, 220 or 320 maybe? Has to be safe for bronze, I believe. Searched on here and also on google, but could not find any info. Thanks.

These seem like very capable machines from all I’ve read on here. A big question for me is, for those who actually run them, what do you do about coolant and chip control? For chips, I know there is a plexi front shield on the ke-55 which should help some in terms of keeping them relatively...

Hi all - Complete Victor 100 series torch set up. I picked this up a few years back, but I really don’t need 3 torch set-ups! Handle, cutting attachment, brazing / welding tips, rosebud, cutting tips, regulators. All are genuine USA made Victor. Regs checked by toledo torch when I sent them...

Hi all - set up my first VFD (hitachi wj200) and it works well so far during testing. I have an older 30mm furnas (now eaton) 3 way rotary selector i’d like to use to control fwd / off / reverse for the spindle. The rotary selector has 1 52baj contact block and 1 52bak contact block mated to a...

Recently got a great deal on a Hobart Tigwave 250 and Bernard Chiller set-up. I’m moving some stuff around and it is time to wire up a dedicated circuit for this. 200 amp single phase service at my main panel. Going to swap the 50 amp breaker (two red 6 awg wires in lower left) to 100 amp and...

Hi all - removed this set-up from a working machine. System was tested when intact and seemed to work well. I need the machine as a manual, so this is all surplus to me. I have not cleaned any of this up of course but it is all in good shape. Festo yzl-250 hydraulic cushion cylinder Festo dnc...

In my ongoing efforts to get this lathe running again, I pulled the transmission and motor assembly out. I tested the motor and it spins nice and quiet. Turning over the transmission by means of the outboard pulley, all gears mesh and rotate smoothly. When the motor is coupled to the trans...

Trying to get an old sag 12 running. Electrician came in and I know one of the contactors is shot. He jumped it and manually pushing it in the motor whizzed to life. However, after some fooling around we could never get the transmission to engage by means of the joystick. I have the feeling it...
