I saw you are cleaning areas with naptha before you pour your e/g....Naptha leaves an oily residue behind and is probably the reason the e/g lifted so easy. Maybe after you do your cleaning run a...

Everyone that was making mounts for these has stopped making them....anyone know why?

I saw an interesting t slot arrangement on a 7 x 12 mini lathe I think by Jeff F. You could use the same principle. He started with a flat table and then mounted a number cast iron strips on top,...

When tapping the holes on the end of 8020, with a hand drill or by hand with a tap wrench, can a thread forming tap be used?

This crashed the first time on me too, but i just tried a 2nd time, and it works.

How easy is it to order, 8020 sells on ebay, with reduced pricing, and their shipping is very very quick.

What would be nice is if a company such as your self would have an online store, with a...

after ruining some nuts on my bicycle with crescent wrench when i was kid, i swore I would never own or use one again, and have pretty much kept that promise to myself. I would think that would...

I have never in my life owned or used a tap handle/wrench that I liked. Maybe that is why I hate tapping. What are the best tap wrenches out there? I do not want anything cast...thats out of the...

I think your referring to a bringe, a gantry is moving bridge. If you want to move it free hand then you don't even need screws.

Ive been in wood working most of my life. Maybe i am telling...

Well I still have not overcome the hurdle of controlling the spindle speed just yet either. I am not sure what type of controller foredom uses, but they say any other controller but theres will ruin...

If anyone has thought about using a Foredom #25 handpiece as a machine spindle, you may want to reconsider. I just got a new one and am sending it back. It feels as if the spindle is sprung..I can...

I have been to that web site, and i see all kinds of mounts for routers, does not give the diameter of any them though. I did not mounts for these but I will look again, i have 65mm air cooled...

Is Dave Decosta still making mounts? I have tried to contact through here and through his website with no luck. Any body know what he charges for them?

I have received my money back from paypal.

Just be thankful you did not order from the guy on ebay.

Just got off the phone with gecko, and all i am going to say is this guy IS NOT an authorized dealer, and something about since a price adjustment, he has fallen off the map.......help i think i just...

still no contact from this guy, the phone number on his site connects to this number though. 248-255-2735 But you get a message the mail box is full. Think I should contact gecko about this? I'd...

so does this kit allow the servo to run as either rpm/dir or step/dir?

but i live almost next door to him and get the state tax whammy....i will just file a dispute and take my biz right to gecko

I edited my opinions from here on my first order, after speaking with the guy on the phone, and he assured me he would ship my order and get it by the end of the week.

I am in the same boat...

Paul,
I was referring to the counter bores made on the face to accept the anchor fasteners.

I'm not sure if this a in general 80/20, if not I can start a differant thread. What im looking for is what is the best cutter to counter bore the ends for the anchor fasteners. I am thinking an...

How about discussing where someone can have a ballscrew turned down on the ends and journals fitted?

Lee,
Did you have surface the bottom of the headstock (spindle housing)?
I have a x2 housing from LMS and no way is the bottom of the housing anywhere near parallel to the spindle bore. If so...
