Spindle is sold,
Drivers and steppers still available.
I upgraded to MX Servos and BT30 spindle on a couple month old 1100M+ with only about 30 minutes of engraving time on the spindle.
Asking $550 for the nearly new Spindle with pulley, belt, draw...
While not a 770, I had a Tormach PCNC 1100 for over 10 years and recently sold it to upgrade. During my time of ownership, the machine was incredibly reliable and the support/service was 2nd to...
You're giving it away for 7500
If were are able to buy a Tormach 1100 in good condition for $4500 euro you would be getting a smoking deal.... especially considering the cost to ship there. IMO, nothing you are going to build...
The gibs are probably to tight or angular contact bearings too loose(or a combo of each)... The machine needs to be trammed in as well. If the base is twisted, it will cause backlash as well.
...
Good question and Im in the same position. Im sure Tormach support would be able to tell you if that is possible.
I made the mistake of trying to upgrade from 1.9 to 2.0 from within Pathpilot and the machine would no longer fully boot. It would start to load into Pathpilot and then state its ready to be shut...
Apologies for the delay...you guys saved my bacon. Thanks so much for the tips, that fixed it!
You stole it!
Thanks Gents! I will report back once I try it tomorrow...
So I have gotten 2 of the 17 inch Monoprice resistive touch screen monitors along with a 19 inch that just arrived today. All three of them display a blue screen that says no-signal when connected...
What's the latest on touch screen monitors that are compatible with the current pathpilot?
Who's purchased one that works lately and confirm it's compatible? If so where did you buy it and what...
I went from SW and Sprutcam to using Fusion360 for everything. I agree with the others, check it out. There is a TON of support and training available and its pretty easy to pick up if you are...
Has anyone checked if the tool changer for the PCNC1100 would work on the 1100M? (even with a few mods?) Thinking up upgrading and I would be nice if it was possible to move the ATC to the new...
I paid about $12.5K for a similar packaged slant pro with some really nice tooling.

Ive had a bunch of problems with the flat connector that is inside the small enclosure on top of the Stepper motor on the ATC. I would track down the wire related to that sensor and make sure there...
Yep! I was lucky enough to find one used and Im not letting go of it any time soon :)
Mike, this would mount to a wall perfectly. It does have a table clamp, but I'm using the vertical face which already has 6 holes that can be used for mounting on walls or sides of cabinets and...
I can get more pictures for you if you like. I just bolted it to the side of the enclosure and once I ad another 2 bolts I think its going to be plenty sturdy. The closer you get it to a corner the...
This one: The Keyboard I am using is this one: https://www.amazon.com/SolidTek-KB-540BU-ACK-540U-portable-Keyboard/dp/B000HD1CK2 Its working fine with Path Pilot

Just finished this up a couple days ago it is really working well.
If you are interested in this, you can find this mount on Amazon...
Wade,
Can you give us an idea on what the two different processes cost to have done?

Its incredible for being free for hobbyists. There are a metric ton number of tutorials on youtube. John Saunders from NYCNC has done several. You can import your solid models from other...
OK here you guys go. You can download a Fusion 360 file, or export in several different formats if not using Fusion 360 Fusion ~ A360 Soft Jaw Download Link
Please let me know if this...
Mike, not that I am aware of... its been working very well for me. Its a pretty easy ramp as well coming from Solidworks. There are a couple good posts for it as well. I know a few others that...
I took the time to model and create the CAM to machine soft jaws for the Tormach SL15 3 jaw chuck and would be happy to share if there is an interest.

Hey Mike, David Borden here! You got a Tormach?
Man, try out Fusion 360. Its very good CAD and CAM and fairly easy to learn. There are a TON of training videos on youtube as well. I have...
Curious if anyone is using Sprutcam 7 and Tormach's new lathe? If so, did you find a post that will work with it? I have been learning Fusion 360 and think its great. Just interested in trying...
