Hi,
Grainger has lots of switches and e-stop buttons and lights.
Most of the lathes I own use a drum switch.

Hi,
Just thought I would mention that you need to be careful with tapered reamers. If you are using them as hand reamers all is good.
But I have seen a person chuck one in a drill press with very...
So, I guess you can't use particle board for anything.
DO NOT BURN PARTICLE BOARD. The fumes are very bad.
I know you were kidding, but we wouldn't want to give any one the idea.
Actually...
Lets think about this....
You are using a $ 23.00 indicator with .0005 graduations and telling us the jaws are off by .0002 ?!? :confused:
I would doubt you can trust those results.
Case...
Hate to disagree, but:
80T No Melt blades are better for continuous cast and extruded acrylic, which is what most people buy because it's cheaper. And no shop I have ever run or been in uses a...
ImanCarrot,
We make lots of very delicate items with the DC tape.
As long as your "prybar" is softer than the material you cutting it won't chip or scratch it.
Also, if you give yourself a place...
Cnczoner,
That Mitee-Bite stuff looks like too much work, applying, heating, reheating. Wheeew I'm tired already.
I'd use double face tape before that. I have DC tape that is almost impossible...
Duster360,
The above advise is correct. A CNC can be a great thing if you already have the work. It's one way to increase production, but it's not going to get you work directly. Twenty years ago...
If the current crop of parts are good enough to be used as they are ( meaning they fit the train even with the warping), I would make a fixture for the CNC machine to flex the parts to the correct...
The reason most manufacturers recommend 15 to 25 HP vacuum pumps is leakage. You can use a small high vacuum 1/3 HP pump to hold parts, we do it all the time. BUT if you get any air leak between the...
How about a 240v to 120v step down transformer? Then you can use the Porter Cable.

You can use FILE/OPEN to open the iges file. You will get a dialog box that asks about "curves, solids" which I usually leave checked and also Separate Surfaces or Solids, I pick separate...
Hi,
Sorry, but I think you are going about this incorrectly.
The G and M,S,T codes are supposed to be universal, as in a common language. I know some machine tool manufactures have not strictly...
G'day Mate ( sorry I couldn't resist )
If this is a typical composite layup I assume the plug is an exact model of the part to be made from which you will layup a mould that the real parts will be...
Hi,
Starrett makes a 72" steel straight edge that is +\- .0002 (two tenths) per foot for $ 400.00. Or a four ft one for $250.
Barwalt has an 8' aluminum one for $ 60.00 but I don't know the...

Frequently disabling your firewall/anti-virus doesn't actually stop it from blocking communications. I have had this happen with wireless connections.
If all else fails,you might...
Any 3 axis cnc router can do that. I think the software will be the problem. There are programs that specialize in 3D sign making and decorations but they are fairly expensive. V-carve and ArtCAM...
Hi,
1/8" polyfoam should work for you. Just cut a strip and wrap like a handlebar.
Staples carries it with or without self cling backing. You might want to secure it in place with electrical heat...
Hi,
Re the surface energy problem.
In order to decorate plastic blow molded bottles, the maunfacturers change the surface energy so the inks will adhere. They do this by passing the bottles in...
As you may have noticed from ckellong's link to Firestone, most if not all concrete counter tops are made from a fairly standard concrete / water mixture. You can make your own if you are so...
Sorry to contradict but:
I use an ASME air tank for full vacuum and it has not collapsed in 20 years. I have collapsed a 50 gal steel oil drum when I tried to use it for an extra tank
The reason...
Hi
Not to beat a dead horse, just one thought about your random carbon fiber layer. While carbon fiber has approximately 4.2 x the stiffness of e-glass ( probably less if you compare s-glass) your...
I have read most of the posts in this thread with interest. If I might add a couple of observations.
When making fibreglass parts the strongest stiffest part has the least amount of resin with...
Hi,
Most of the haircell I have used is not as rough as your post would seem to indicate. The exception is reground material which has a rougher pattern.
There are a few standard ABS textures....
