Hi,
I too had a 4 x 4 burn table which either crashed the Z or drove it to the upper limit. I contacted a local plasma cutter manufacturer Camcutcnc.

Hi Hoss,
I am getting busy making the PDB 3 , I bought a new fabco air cylnder. I don't see the air fittings listed in the BOM do you have a source and part number?
PS the cylnder was only...
Hi,
I am running a Gregs extruder. I would like th machine the small gear (10 tooth) out of aluminum.
Does anyone know what pitch the gear is?
Thanks

Hi Hoss,
I was catching up on this thread and thought I would respond about CAD and editing Stl files. I have been using Turbocad Professional and I am able to open an Stl then explode it...
Thanks Hoss!
That worked out well. I didn't see a calibration procedure, it just worked?
Thanks
Sean
Hi Hoss,
Re: Touchscreen
Are you running windows XP? Did you have to install drivers? Is there a calibration procedure? I went to the website where the Ebay seller said the drivers are,...
Hi Hoss,
While I was catching up on this thread I read this comment
"some people think 3D printers are only good for making whistles and other trinkets"
My main mill is a Lagun CNC...
Thanks!!
Hi Hoss,
What did you use to fasten the thermocouple to your heated bed?
Thanks
Sean
Hi Hoss,
RE calibration of the printer Z axis.
I have a Prussa I3 clone. I have the Z calibrated so that when I jog 10 mm it goes 10 mm as best as I can measure. My prints come out slightly...
Hi Hoss,
I was looking at your speed control video for the G0704.
I am wondering how much you bypassed ? do you still need
to press the green button to activate the motor? or is that ...
Hi Hoss,
I should also mention that I primarily cut aluminum. I have noticed that I get the best finish when I cut dry but I can't do that for very long before the ally fuses.
Any suggestions...
Hi Hoss,
I have been searching for flood coolant and it has left me thoroughly confused. What do you use?
Thanks
Sean
Hi Hoss,
The new printer looks very cool!! Looking at it raises a couple of questions.
1) On this one the extruder is back on the X axis, was there a problem with the remote extruder?
...
Hi Hoss,
I thought I would add my 2 cents to the motor blog. I looked at a levil milling machine
a while back, they use an interesting motor. It is similar to the R/C motor you just...
Hi Hoss,
Re: the treadmill motor mount, I have the same model / size that you are using. It looks like you have an aluminum tube bolted to an adjuster plate. Is the tube bored for a tight slip...
Hi Hoss,
Do you have plans / drawings available for the treadmill motor mount? Are you planning on reinstalling the fan on top of the encoder?
Thanks
Sean
Thanks!
Sean
Hi Hoss,
Thanks for the links to the videos! Do you recall what type of bearings you used? were they shielded? Did you have to bore both ends or just one? If both, any tips for keeping the...
Hi Hoss,
I seem to recall that you converted your mini lathe to 5C, is that correct? If so did you document the process. I think it used one of those indexer spindles? I cant seem to find...
Hi Hoss,
Just a thought, In my experiences with Air Conditioning, if you pull a vacuum on a closed system the moisture will turn to vapor at around 27" of vacuum and be sucked out via the...
Hi Hoss,
My Pla arrived today from Repraper colors were correct.
I hope yours arrives soon.
Sean
Hi Hoss,
No, I haven't seen it yet. They did send an order acknowledgement.

Just for comparison:
Hoss's purchase:
6 days ago I ordered some 3mm PLA from repraper.com. yeah that's how they spell it.
Saw a link on 3ders.org so I thought I'd give them a try.
They are...
Hi ImagineRobot,
I didn't buy from him, but from the link that Hoss posted a few pages back. The print quality was not bad except that the X rods are not parallel which causes binding. I...
Hi all,
I purchased a printerbot, every time I work on it I find faults, consequently , mine is turning into an aluminum bot as I keep making parts for it on the mill. My advice is to do like...
Hi,
I do know how to solder quite well, it took me 10 min to solder up that board. Assuming you haven't soldered much it may take you an hour but it wont be a mega challenge. I would suggest...
Hi Hoss,
I noticed that you ran your printer from an sd card in one of your videos. Do you need a computer hooked up to tell it to start printing and or do an estop or make another of the...
Hi,
If you have a mill or an engraver the heated bed is a really simple milling job as there are no holes and such. The milling path can easily be drawn in a cad program. So no need for a PCB...
