    Re: Grinder/Buffer Rebuild Help

    I’d like to be of help but that was a long time ago! I no longer have the buffer and don’t remember.

    I think I could have gotten a bit more but the buyer made it an easy, no hassle deal. Or so it seems. We'll find out when it's paid for and gone.

    And yes, I'm sure things will slow down at some point. I just don't like to have anything mechanical sit without being used. I go out there each month and run it for a little while as it is.

    The $48K price when I bought it was a 30% discount off the retail price from Haas. According to the sales guy these aren't available from Haas right now because they have a backlog of orders.

    Thanks for the reply. I suppose I asked the wrong question. The better question is, what should I make it out of? The max weight it would need to support is about 3000 lbs. Would 6061 do?

    Thanks for the suggestion on Harvey Tool. They have exactly the cutter I need. I haven't seen these through any of the normal tool companies (enco, msc, etc.).

    What's odd is that only a few months ago Haas listed these updates on their site. They had a revision history list of what changed in each software version. I cant' find it now.
