I know, I know, it one of those one-off sorta deals. Gosh I wish the PCNC had some sort of manual controls. They don't even need power feeds but simple had wheels would be great.

Wow! Nice to know I'm not alone around here, thx!

Just curious if there's anyone in or around Arkansas with a Tormach?

I think that says it all, 'it's a mature design...' if there was any potential for failure we would have seen something by now. Thx!

Thank you, and that's what I hoping to hear... now I just need to find another use for the SOOW wire I had bought...

I knew when I was typing that question, someone was going to give a formula....
Let me ask this another way, is it possible to reliably squeeze 220vac 20 amps thru the spring terminals? For...
I'm trying to find some comfort in how Tormach designed the electrical power transmission within the 1100. First thing is 1-1/2hp even possible on 220v@20a, maybe, but you have the mains coming in to...
Could someone explain the benefit of flood coolant over a Trico micro droplet system? I had a Trico on my previous CNC & loved it, however, I went with Tormach's flood coolant system when i bought my...
I stayed more loyal to the form factor, taking a Patriot removing all the bondo, paint & grinding the castings more accurate to their intended shape, powder coating everything, dual balls screws gas...
Don't worry, if I smell it anywhere close I'll jump on it! :devious:
Once upon a time we had the brother-in-law discount with Grainger, as a result I have more Dayton crap than any one person...
I sure wish we could all buy under a Co-op's account with Grainger, MSC, or McCarr. Something like a Tormach Users Assoc. a not for profit organization membership that would nego. account discounts...
Thanks for the Inox tip got some ordered to try anything besides WD40. I ended up buying silica gel by the pound (15 lbs.) & some tyvek & muslin drawstring bags to put it in. The incand. Bulb does...
Jeez!!! I just took a look at Tormach's website as of today for the 1100 the ATC, power drawbar, full enclosure, machinist's vise, & rapidturn are all either backordered or out of stock until the end...
Thank you! Ordered.
I need some suggestions with my shop & the enviroment. I'm located outside of Little Rock, AR, if you're unfamiliar with the area, it's currently tornado season & the temps. are moderate but the dew...

Shoptask 2013 Patriot CNC
I'm not sure if I'm posting this classified correctly, the website was asking bizarre questions. Anyway, I have a Shoptask 3in1 lathe/mill/drill CNC for sale. This unit...
You don't need to do any of that stuff you losing power NOT a blue screen. I'd check the power switch itself on the case & make sure it's cleanly connected to the mobo. Are you by chance on the same...
Thanks Smallblock, I was gathering the same thing, I had assumed it was against forum rules for post anything for sale outside of the classified's board.
I guess I'll get some pictures together &...
Let me ask this a different way....
I've tried going to the classifieds section here on cnczone.com but it changed to Panjo. Whoever Panjo is, they want $5.00 for make a post. I don't mind (it's...
Hey can someone tell me if the classified ads are still free here or not?
Thanks,

Yeah, JT plays his cards REAL close to his body. It's understandable considering the clone machines that appeared in the past & the losses he went thru.
Your spot on, with differences in...
Okay, so most of you know to some extent the table on Patriot models before they moved the X axis to the center. I assume the change in location did address this, please correct me if not. Anyway the...
Larry,
I was trying to do the same thing, I hated the mess & was trying to capsulate the area, sorta like a machine center. So all I'd have to do is open the door wash everything down with...
Larry,
You lucky dog!!! How are you coming with that new machine? Can you give us some shots of that X axis? How's is integrated to the center of the ways? Is it on top or has the casting for the...
