I would think a solid mounted frame would be best to avoid losing energy in a secondary non productive vibration. Mounting the machine to your floor would be fine with concrete anchors epoxied into...
I own a tig machine, and the process is definitly the best looking and most controllable, but for gates and and railings mig is preferable from an economical standpoint because it costs less to weld...
A buzz box is usually an ac arc welder, a basic transformer driven stick welder. They are called that because, well, they buzz. Especially under heavy load.
I recently purchased an HTP Invertig 200 with water cooled torch. So far I'm really happy with it. I'v got a long way to go to master tig welding, but for aluminum theres no other real alternative...
I know they look remarkably similar to the cheap chinese ones sold on ebay. I'm not sure if thats where they are made, but I doubt they are much different.
I thought about getting one too, I mean...
Harbor Freight has their smaller lathe mill combination machine (see link below) on sale this week for $599, and I am entertaining the thought of picking one up.
I went down to the store and...
Maybe I'm wrong but wouldnt commercial mass production of a plastic part be more economically and efficiently done by injection molding rather than 5 robots and 5 cnc mini mills?
Quality of workmanship is about it. Sherlines are American made to some pretty tight tollerances. If I were interested in making really small precise parts I'd buy a Sherline, but i'm not, I dont...
Well I dont think Sherline makes a mill thats bigger than the smallest harbor freight mill. They are better than harbor freight though, light years better. Just a bit limited on project size.

When I was a kid I found an old police car strobe assembly at the local landfill, with dual capacitors about that size. I hooked it up to a car battery and one thing lead to another and next thing I...
Thank you folks for the input, I still havent decided on what controller to use, but am going to go ask some questions over on the xylotex board and some other places too, I really want to make the...
I just got my 3 stepper motors today, they are 2.75V 3A 1.8 Degree 180 oz. Sanyo Denki Model 103H7126-5590.
I couldnt find much info on this particular model, but the motors also say Rorze type...
