Yes, someone asked me this, this steady rest came off of a pre Pacemaker, American Tool Works lathe. I do not know that it will work on a Pacemaker.

I’m having something, sorta like that, made for my Brother. Depending on what my friend who is putting it together decides. Basically an addition screening box to help eliminate the fines that end up...

Taken off a 20” American Late.

I would really prefer NOT to ship. Boxing/crating/freight is time and materials.

Dewalt makes a cold saw for cutting metal, they are around $800 on amazon

It’s interesting and frustrating to me how every industry is different in how liability is assigned.

I can make parts for one industry, provide them to a company that fits and installs them, and...

Anecdotal opinion. . .

The Hermle I ran was HSK 63, and would do every thing the CAT 40 Mazak’s would do. . . And more.

Is that a fair comparison. . . I don’t know? I didn’t run much soft...

Always interested to learn whatever I can.

thanks

:eek: WHAT?! Is that a typo?! I worked in a non climate controlled shop, that would be 35 degrees IN THE SHOP in the morning and 70 in the afternoon, and didn’t see that much growth?

If you...

I see two issues, as “areas of opportunity” since you are into buzz words, I think that’s the appropriate one?

I think your seriously selling yourself short with the emphasis on “CNC Shop”.

So, a hundred parts is a large number for me, so I don’t cut any volume.

But. . . .

I bought a $100 Wellsaw that’s probably 30 years old and it cuts better than your saw.

My material...

Funny, I mentioned this in another thread, I’ve broken 3 pull studs in a Cat 40, thankfully that hasn’t happened in my Brother.

I should compile all my previous posts into a canned response :)

:D

Enjoy!

Sorry, already sold, paid for and shipped. Forgot to update.

I tried to say this, but wasn't as clear.

Ours weren’t quite that bad, but the number I heard, including original purchase price, freight, duties (etc), labor for inspection after the dies made bad parts, disassembly, rework, new details,...

Are you sure about that cost? My LIST price for Renishaw spindle probe and Metrol tool probe was ~$8500?

In the time I have been using Renishaw I’ve never had any type of failure on the probes...

Might wanna have that checked out. . .

Definitely want the spindle probe, I’ve never used another probe, other than renishaw, have run machines with no “setting”, and it sucks. Maybe not for production.

I went without CTS, I wish I...

I heard brother has some great end of the year deals going. . . :scratchchin:

Scotch Brite comes in many colors. When working with historical artifacts, or anything “old” that I just want to clean, I use a white scotch brite. If I remember right they refer to this as a...

Awesome!

When I was shopping I was looking at the S700, and was very impressed with my Yamazen office. I really wanted a S1000 but simple couldn’t swing the price.

Then someone (Andy :D)...

I did 3 of the 5 years of a mechanical engineering degree, and since I already had one degree I never finished. I honestly feel the program did more harm than good for these kids. Their ignorance was...

Oh your smarter than that. . . Read what he said.

If you have to make 1000 parts a month, but your machine can only make 800, you need two machines, right?

If the Haas will make 800 parts in...
