Could someone please post the original drawing template file. By accident I have overwritten mine and I can't get it back. I'm using 2011.
Any help would be great thanks

Right off the top like Ray said, they are considerably more expensive. My BT-30 drill chuck from Mari-Tool was around $150. 30 taper is more rigid but on such a small machine you won't notice a...
I actually unchecked that box and it fixed the problem. Thanks
Thanks guys, much appreciated.
I don't have my MPG connected to the Pokeys. Mine is right to the breakout board. It seems like Mach3 is queuing the steps from the MPG. Try reducing the increment to .001" or .0254mm for you metric...
I agree, builds are fun to follow but what is really interesting, is what can you do with what you built.
That's a different approach, enclosing the base like that. Not sure I've seen that before. Should work great if you seal it up good. Just remember, chips get EVERYWHERE. Keep up the good work.
By the way to stock bellows on the Zaxis are pathetic. I'm going to send it out to be replicated by Gortite in something more durable.
Thank you, thank you. Yeah it was nice seeing the machine run around 40,000 lines of code and not miss a beat.
I'll see if I can get some video of it cutting.
Thank you, check your email.
So I've been using X5 on Windows XP for quite some time now and everything worked great. I recently made the move to Windows7 and now I have a minor issue. When I draw any geometry on the screen I...
Like I said above it's 3/16 acrylic sheet. Metal mesh isn't necessary in this case. I left the top open because it gets pretty warm in the enclosure when the machine is running for long periods of...
Probably around what the Tormach deluxe stand costs.
I used 3/16" thick acrylic sheet. I got it at the local hardware store. The gasket material is from McMaster-Carr but the manufacturer is Trim Lok It works very well and holds the panels firmly in...
Thank you

I think it's time for a progress update. I've let the updates kind of get away from me. Anyways I've pretty much got the build complete. I have a...
Does you air cylinder have adjustable cushions in it? If not, using one with cushions will help dramatically with the slamming.
Do yourself a favor and check out MSM. After using it for awhile now, I can't bear to look at the standard 1024 screen set.
Just a suggestion...
Easiest way to draw a timing pulley and/or gear.
Gearotic Motion
Perfect that works great thanks!
Is there any way to center geometry about X0Y0? I'm talking irregular shaped geometry. Or is there a way to find the geometry extents? i.e. Max X, Min X, Max Y, Min Y
I even emailed the supplier asking him to chime in on the thread. IMO the person who built the equipment should know better then anyone how to fix it.
Anyways it's fixed and working so I'm happy....
IT WORKS!
Thank you to everyone who helped me out.
5V through a 10ohm resistor to the LED's in series, and putting outputs in series did the trick.
Thanks again
Disregard the LED side I forgot the change it with the 10ohm resistor. The output side is what I need to make sure is right.
So just to make sure I got this right.
Like this?
Okay so we have progress. I connected the LED's in series with a 10ohm resistor to 5V. Now I can get any switch to work, as long as the other two are blocked.
For instance, as long as the X and Z...
Are you talking with or without the C3?
Can you draw a simple schematic showing what exactly you mean?
I appreciate the suggestion and I was hopeful for the light at the end of the tunnel but I just went out and re-wired in series. Same result, only the Z axis sensor works. Obviously since everything...
What is a 2n7000?
The Z axis always worked. It just has never worked in conjunction with the other sensors. Let me ask you this, is there anyway I can use the sensors I have without the use of the C3? What is the...
