    Yasnac 2000G keypad wedge - BTR workaround

    Disclaimer: This is the story of a project that makes no sense as a moneymaker, but is a fun challenge and a vehicle to learn and try some new skills. So I have a 1981 Takamatsu EM-2 turning center that uses Yasnac 2000G. It had a BTR that the previous owner could never get to work. I tried...

    WTB smaller Horizontal injection molding machine (5-15 ton) in NE

    Looking for a used horizontal injection molding machine in the New England area. Something like a Boy 15 or a small Arburg for my garage for a part I am working on. Babyplast is probably out of my budget. I've found some out in the Ohio/Michigan area but just tossing out the request here...

    3D printed drive belts for a B&S 510 surface grinder

    Sharing something I tried and seems to be working out. The o-ring belts on my newly aquired 510 surface grinder were junk and needed replacement. From searching around it seems that they are a non-standard size of around 0.260" diameter, and are around $30 each for the 5 or 6 needed. I ended...

    NOS Moore 1-2-3 block set. Still wrapped. Sharing and question

    I'm helping a neighbor sell some tools that he got from his brother decades ago. Many of them are new and never opened from 40-50 years ago. One wild thing is this Moore set of 1-2-3 blocks with everything still wrapped up. I'm posting because I thought this group would get a kick out it...

    WTB Harrison L5A Steady and power contact switch

    I picked up a nice 1960ish Harrison L5A as part of an estate I was helping to clean out. After hours of cleaning it up my son and I quite like it and decided to keep it - eventually he will probably get it. Anyways - long shot here but does anyone have a reasonably priced steady rest - or a...

    Company identification on drills - "M" and M in a square

    Hi - I acquired a set of MT2 shank drill bits in a Huot Index, sizes 33/64" to 3/4". All the drills say Made in USA and are either stamped with the USA and an M in a square, or laser marked with Made in USA and an M in quotes. Can I assume these are Morse?

    Weld repair of worn bolt close surface - advice requested

    Hi - be gentle on me if I don't use the right terminology. My Jr. Olympic Rifle program has some old 22LR Anschutz rifles - maybe from the 60's. They are great for the younger shooters because they are light. On one of them the surface that cams the bolt completely forward into the battery...

    FS: 18" x 16" x 20" giant slotted right angle plate

    Too big for my needs. 20" wide and 18" and 16" legs. 1.5" thick. VERY heavy - like 330# or more heavy. No maker mark, I think its steel. Typical little burrs on some of the edges that file off. Prefer local pickup - but would strap to a pallet and drop at shipper if you do all the...

    Underdimensioned prints referring to the model with a generic profile callout

    Hi All, I'm checking some prints and coming across a batch that is using something that I've only ever seen with complex shaped mold cavities. These are milled parts and have most, but not all of the dimensions there. There is a note to "check the solid model for any missing dimensions" and...

    Wanted: old punched NC tape, ISO program for testing 1", 8 bit

    Hi. Checking if anyone has an old punched tape (opaque) sitting on a shelf that they don't need or want that I could use to debug a machine. Smaller is better and it does not matter what it is - I'm not going to run it, just see if I can get it to load into memory. I'm working with an old NC...

    Need Matsushita TR-6DA1 pinout for Yasnac CRT display for retrofit

    I have an old (1981) NC turning center with the Yasnac 2000G control. It has a CRT that has a dark area and has done some weird flickers in the past. I figure it is just a matter of time before it becomes unusable - so I'm looking to switch it over to a LCD on the cheap. It is not a money...
