Hello,

Go to the yahoo group mill drill and look for the details of adding 2 bags of ready-mix concrete into the base of the existing stand.

For me it was Like night and day; just as the...

Hello,

Bright steel rod (we call it Drill rod in the USA) will work. But it is not a truly round as precision ground rod.

You might want to try to find precison ground rod that is NOT called...

Hello,

You should have a look at: http://www.kleinbauer.com

Hello,

Not Joe, but yes, it looks like the top adjustment for the across-the-gantry axis. (Which I call the Y axis.) Gantry along table is X, and Z is toolup/down.)

Two points are being...

Hello,

You don't need a square to check your machine or part accuracy for square.

First be sure your machine moves the same distance in X and Y, when similar distances are programmed. IOW if...

Hello,

Be sure to look at the WHOLE torque curve, and not just the holding torque spec!

It's waaaay too easy to get a "Tim the tool man" attitude about this CNC stuff. ("Mine's bigger'n yours"...

LionClaw,

No worries. I was just trying to point out that "simple and low cost" up-front may become complex and high-cost (due to flakey operation and repair of the machine) sooner than a person...

Andy,

Yes, I saw that. But it is still a tick-tock motion and not a rolling motion. Just a heads up as it WILL work for awhile; maybe even a "long" while. But it WILL fail sooner than a proper...

Hello,

This hinged wire support is a bad thing...

Wires will QUICKLY fail if they are subject to a "tick-tock" bending as you've created here. We all intuitively know this because when we WANT...

Hello,

I'm not Ger; but I have done a bit of CNC routing in wood...

For solid wood, I had extremely good luck with Onsrud HSS SINGLE flute spiral upcut bits with a 1/2" shank. I ran these in...

Joe,

I didn't even know I had a profile here. How do I get to it?

Okay, I found it.

Hello,

What are the XYZ axis travels for the twin tube R2 version of Joe's machine?
(his latest, I believe)

What is in the kit, and how much does it cost?

Thank you in advance,

Ballendo

Drmosh,

I believe you've just posted the single best message on choosing a CNC router I've ever seen anywhere! EXCELLENT post!

Thank you!

Ballendo

Well, you've now lost at least 33% of the motors torque; likely even more...

The motors are magnetised AFTER assembly, and simply removing the rotor from within the stator DOES reduce the motor...

James,

I'm not sure what's going on with your email, as we've had hundreds arrive and leave from our website without a problem... You might want to check with your ISP, as from our end everything...

Hello,

Yes I do have some "insider" info. But I'll keep it at that for now, as folks have given me a hard time for describing upcoming things. But yes, there is already a router TOOL changer that...

Dar,

Simple answers are sometimes harder than simple questions...

There are folks cutting aluminum, CRS, and SS every day using motors like the ones in the 430MCU. But those motors are not on a...

Hello,

Not something for nothing. No different than trading torque for speed in your automobile transmission...

High speed at low torque in = low speed at high torque out

High volts at low...

Hello,

The simple answer is that chopper drives are able to supply the motor the power it needs using less power from the supply.

Remember the motors are not asking for 24 or 36 volts, only...

Hello,

You could; but you wouldn't get full performance from your motors.

We'd rather put together an MCU for you using Gecko's and a larger power supply.

If you're interested in...

Vacpress,

That day is closer than you think...<G>

Ballendo

No, It's my mistake.

I thought they'd been turned on as individual purchase-able items.

Seems they are only now showing as an upgrade option to the 430MCU's.

Rest assured we do have them,...

Dar,

Thank you for the interest. Nobody trying to learn sounds stupid, IMO (in my opinion). We're ALL new at something...

Okay, so I see someone has pointed out that a URL is simply tech-speak...

Yes, that is correct.

The URL to Order online is at the top of this thread.

John,

I appreciate your interest, but feel uncomfortable "selling" our products in a xylotex thread. I hope you don't mind us moving the conversation across to our product announcement thread here...

Hello,

Sorry to hear of a problem in reaching us.

I'm not sure what it could be as we've been getting a high number of emails each day. And there's no way we'd purposely ignore anyone.

As I...

Hello,

I've got to agree with the others. Jeff's customer service is excellent. I've noticed his xylotex yahoo group is a bit silent right now too...

As others have suggested, he's likely out...

Hello Joe,

Because 4 amps is enough to get good performance.

FWIW, we can add amperage to our MCU if it is found necessary; the box and its contents have been designed for this. But it hasn't...

Kouroosh,

Yes, You need the mechanical structure of the CNC machine.

Everything else is included with the 430MCU system package.
