This thread is old, stale and WAY off-topic.. Keep it on topic next time.. JRouche

It was me that you asked. No, I wont open a new sub-section for Skyfire because it doesn't appear to be a mainstream machine. Are there many machines out there??? If so then maybe it will happen. But...

I have checked it with five online website malware scanning sites and none have reported any virus or malware issues. This does NOT mean I give it "Kings X" and its perfectly safe. Only that I feel...

LOL Im afraid ;) Lotta unhappy :boxing: folks on the thread it seems.. Ill just watch from afar for now. Good luck...... JR

Hey Doc. Good to see this project is still alive. I have accumulated a few 6" rotary tables just for this purpose. Ill be following along.. JR

Hey folks. Do a service to the guys that are reading this thread and stop the personal insults and improper postings. Keep it pointed at the topic and not each other. No reason to have this topic get...

Hey folks. Spam is not aloud. But continuous talk about it really doesn't help either. If you see a post that might be contrary to the well being of the topic, or an out right violation of the agreed...

Hmm???? Not quite right.. I kinda think the 10EE was made for 5c work holding. With the 4000rpm spindle its perfect for 5c work :) JR

My 10EE. See the spindle? Thats a nose piece that the 5c...

I was waiting for the OD threading. That would have been good to see :) JR

Edit. It looked like it was a couple of start passes. I guess it was a final cut? Nice boring mill JR

Very good post. Pretty much sums it up. I along with the others here appreciate your post. Right from the Horses mouth so to speak. JR

Very nice Sarel!! Yer on yer way now.. Sounds like you know your way around the mechanics and electrical side of the entire adventure.

I am also doing a 45 clone and will be watching your thread...

You dont see the pics??? Thats odd. You should just see the pics and not links to them. Maybe its a browser issue. If you use a phone its browser might have a diff way to handle pics to save you data...

Well? I bit the bullet and had to pay for the unlimited bandwidth. I use PB because I have many sites I upload photos (links) to. Its a convenience issue. Cnczone is just one of prolly 15 sites I...

Photobucket ERRR! :rolleyes: JR

More pics. The table on after the ball screw nuts and screws were mounted. One part I didnt talk about was the ball nuts were wrapped in heat shrink tubing to help keep "junk" out of them. I wish I...

I dont know anything about ball screws or nuts. This is my first go around. For some odd reason I remember thinking or hearing about ballnuts that had staggered sized bearings (the balls). And Im not...

Hey Jess...

I do think they are Rockford units.

I did have some issues with the nuts. It wasnt the lil burr that you have on the tube. Mine were fouled with dirt. Not talking about massive...

Thanks for checkin in Ian. Some good points.

The linear slides would be a nice project but to be honest the money tree is dry and I need to wrap this project up with what I have and call it a day...

Thanks... Yeah, the aluminum ballnut mounts do look a lil light. Kinda hard to see with my pics but they are pretty substantial. The flat part (the wings) are .250" aluminum and the body is a lil...

Hahaha!!! YUP.... JR

I did find a couple more pics. See how long it takes me just to load some old pics??? No wonder this darn project is taking so long :) JR

Anyway, not useful for a how it was done type pic but its...

Hello... I would post this over at the IH forum here. Industrial Hobbies (Support forum)

You want me to move your post? JR

Hahaha.. No, not an accent per se. But Im telling you, just like I said, you could be my Bro-in-law on that vid if I didnt know any better. And he has a way of talking (I guess thats what I meant),...

Great vid. Thanks, JR

Hey guys. Found some more pics to upload from way back.

Also did some work on it today. I really wonder if this whole machining thing is suited for me. I literally made three parts for the one...

Some shots of the Z slide. There have been many improvements in this area over the years for this type of mill. For example the IHs mill has a much larger and IMO better Z-axis slide as do some of...

Again, some 2005-2006 pics to catch up.

Some additional pics of the saddle. I showed this one before but forgot to mention besides milling the ballnut mount mounting surface flat (and that lil H...
