Where do I get the wipers, spur gears and bushings? How much are they?
Mike

They are cheap assed gears and wear really fast. I have been wondering about heat treating the gears. I believe the racks are a lot harder. I can see the benefit of one,( the gear ), being a little...

Thanks for the reply. Mine is bad also. I appreciate that you will get me the info. I agree that the tables need frequent cleaning. I also check all of my gantry bolts for security about once a week....

Hi,
What part number did you order for the cassette, and how much?
Thanks,
Mike

Maybe this should be forwarded to Mac. I hate all of the PC crashes. If Mac knew how much Cad/Cam was used , maybe they would put some R&D into it.

Hi,
I did that and it is OK now. I don't know what took it out of square though. I used it for two years with no problems.

Hi All,
I just solved the problem with the diagonal moves. I took the gantry apart and cleaned everything. I reassembled as per the original instructions and realigned. It works great again.I still...

Thanks for the reply. I cleaned the racks a couple of days ago. They are pretty much out of the way on the TM3.

Hi All,
I am having a problem today with my TM3 4X8. I was trying to cut some large pieces. The table would traverse for a little ways diagonally as it should, then would stop going diagonally and...

Hi,
I have a TM3 with a Hypertherm 1250. I am not able to afford the AVHC and machine torch at this time. What is the best way to set the heighth for the cut? I am having troubles with the metal...

Pretty neat how they would be surprised. I have called and given this thread on many occasions. I have also still not received the Plasma Quench that I was billed for and was sent an invoice to pay...

Hi All,
I bought the TM3 Gantry kit and built my table. I had a small problem with one guy in tech and that was handled. I learned the cad in a few weeks and decided to design in my Bobcad 21. I...

Hi,
I bought the TM3 kit and built my table. I added a watertable. I still only have the hand torch holder, but the table is all they said it would be and then some. I also had NO cad experience. I...

Hi,
Maybe we should all do some investigation on the web. I have no chemistry background, and am only interested in stopping rust and gunk from forming in my new watertable. I now have only an inch...

Hi,
For the cad, I use Bobcad. Bobcad is not cheap, but real easy to learn and very functional. I do agree with Tom, in that I also use Corel Draw 12 for artwork. I am not an artsy kinda guy, but I...

Hi Jcar,
You are correct. I just read and found that it is in fact sodium nitrate. I will look that up on the web and see where to get it.
Thanks,

I am very happy with how my...

Hi,

I called them today. They said they would call back. I called again. They said they would call back. I told them that I read a piece on the internet about maybe sending a call in the direction of the...

Hi,
I save as a .dxf and then import into TM3. I have had some good luck and some not so good. I just scanned a part into MS Paint and edited it in TM Cad. I then exported it and edited further in...

Hi All,
I ordered Plasma Quench two weeks ago and have not received it. I will call them tomorrow and see what's up. I'll post the results.
Mike

Hi All,
I have been using my TM3 for a while and was wondering what postprocessor to use for the plasma cutting in Bobcad 21. I guess I could just design the part and export as .dxf to TM3, but was...

Hi,
How much is all of this if I already have Bobcad?
Mike

Hi,
Thanks Mike. That is what I was referring to. I appreciate the help.
I have almost finished my water table. It is 6" deep on the low side of the table and 4" deep on the high side. I will put a...

Hi All,
I just received the spur gears today and installed them. I let the machine go through a small cut file with the torch turned off and all seems to be working well. I will start on my water...
