    Hardinge Bridgeport EZ Vision E Stop Activated and will not reset.

    I've been out of the "Loop" a long time but kinda looks like "Bridgeport" badged Taiwanese mills brought to the USA might have been cancelled ? I just went poking around the Hardinge web site and vertical mills of any description don't appear to be in evidence... but a new honing machine...

    looking for trouble

    . You take a large pair of calipers (like in your Pakistani Ammonia crank shaft video) and measure between the ears (actually just above on the bony areas (on the left and right temporal bones** ) and that my friend is the thickness* of the slabe you will want. ...

    new machine shop

    Best to sell everything you own, get divorced, say goodbye to your children and grandchildren (past present and future ) and move into your Mom's moldy basement. . That way you can afford to rent professional facilities and finance real machines (for a while) until Jamie Dimon gets bored of all...

    have any of you ever heard of "Niles Simmons" before?

    . Switzerland - has been a key for these types of goings on since before WW II , then DURING WWII* - even allies indirectly trading with axis powers and now nothing super new there other than the Germans having to ask the US state-department if they can sell these things to Russia... (due to...

    Cylindrical interpolation: Thumb rule to determine direction of G2/G3

    Hardly a week would go by without me having gone to bog and then attempted to wash my hands to then find the true meaning of "two-tenths". . There are other ways for "We" fach-idiots to have "Fun" - you are not your Job ... (or jobbies). ~ For some reason I have this vibe that Bill Howard may...

    Meldas C64 dead battery

    Just for shits and grins I downloaded the Meldas C6/C64 manual and I'm almost shocked at how well (seemingly) - near "Everything" is explained. Even a sheared (geometrically helical path ) , plus clear formulae and machine timings / acc-dec / move curves - even variable pitch / leads for...

    Mori Shakes Aggressively

    There are special non destructive imaging techniques (x-rays) and special dies that could identify that but it's not something that someone could actually 'Fix"... (as far as I'm aware ) - musing about the utility of welded frame / slab bases for machines ... Seems counter "Cannon" to what a...

    Mori Shakes Aggressively

    . War & Peace ----> "Happy Ending". ??? . I've only seen the BBC* version but I guess Paul Dano as a muddled Jesus like f*cking Jody (of the worst kind) swooping in on Natasha (Lilly James ) after Andrei dies of his battle wounds a second time (in Natasha's arms) - 'cuz Anatole Kuragin...

    Coolant recommendation

    In New Mexico / Balloon Fiesta they have a SWISS LUBE balloon ~ Of course nobody (civilian / "Normies" ) have any idea what Swiss 'Lube" is... And start wondering if behind closed doors (in spite of external appearances and buttoned down nature of the Swiss ) are actually pretty kinky /...

    Dmg Mori Monoblock 75 2nd Gen vs Mazak i-800T

    . . I agree / funny was going post / say - having a glitchy control that's been incorrectly configured at the factory with what essentially boils down to a mathematically intractable problem making the Towers of Hanoi problem seem like cake walk in comparison and thusly leaving someone (or a...

    Dmg Mori Monoblock 75 2nd Gen vs Mazak i-800T

    . Nerv writes : "From a design perspective I do not see how these other machines are going to be superior to a Monoblock design. They have great rigidity for how responsive they are, and also are efficient as far as the machine footprint." ^^^ These days I can't really be f*cked anymore about...

    Dmg Mori Monoblock 75 2nd Gen vs Mazak i-800T

    Thanks I appreciate it !. . Off topic - Really enjoyed your recommendation of Chernobyl (mini series) - excellent . I'll recommend Shōgun back at you (on Hulu) - half way through it. .

    Dmg Mori Monoblock 75 2nd Gen vs Mazak i-800T

    I think I meant to say "Dennis" of Dstryr "fame". knocking a few cobwebs loose. . . At least we haven't had another 2008 type crash yet so that's good - but having to honor many commitments through covid pandemic / endemic is/was a challenge - "Force Majeure " doesn't count.
