    Sticky: my .02 cents

    I just want to shout out a big cheer for Joe and Joe's forum. I was there at the start, and I still visit about twice a week. I've learned a lot during my association with Joe and his pals. If...

    Tisr,
    I'm pretty sure that no part of the Hybrid is bigger then 25x25".

    Sorry, I don't remember the size of the largest part, and I don't have my plans with me at the moment because I'm away...

    I had some fun with the rotary last weekend. It sure is fun.

    I'd say the JGRO takes a week to build. Ordering parts, stepper motors, drivers, power supplies, Acme nuts, will take longer. Choosing these parts is a difficult decision particularly if you've...
  5. Just completed, a 4th axis.

    I can't believe how long it's been since I updated this thread. I'm still active with my Hybrid CNC. But for the last 4 months, I've been away from home. I really missed my CNC hobby while away....

    Acme 1/2-8, 2 starts is twice as fast as the 1/2-10. About a year ago, I upgraded to the 1/2-8, 2 starts and my speed jumped by a factor of 2. Cost was not that much either. Well worth the added...

    Congratulations on your build. You're going to love the JGRO. I know I loved mine, I cut a lot of stuff on it too.

    mofo,
    You must run software, but mach3 is one of several choices. It's a good choice, that's for sure. Price and performance, it probably the best. You will need other software too.

    I...

    Ron,
    What kind of glue do you use on the G10? Looking at the picture, I don't see any glue evidence. So I'm guessing you are using CA glue.

    Also, the joiner box you built appears to have a...

    Now, that's what I'm talking about. Great lead-in and you still have 7 or 8 full sized cutting teeth.

    Did anyone try freezing the plastic? Interesting idea.

    Very nice. That's big for a JGRO. I remember my size limit was about 16 x 30 inches. And when I got that big, it was hard to hold the wood down. Nice job.

    Wow, very nice.

    When I made mine, I reduced the lead-in diameter a bit more. But give it a try the way it is now. If you have trouble getting it to start with the current configuration, then...

    Jason,
    I routinely cut at 100 ipm without stalling. Sometimes I cut at 150 ipm, but in the winter, it's not 100% reliable at higher speeds. I'm a little lazy, so I haven't tried to optimize the...

    Beautiful airplane. What is the wingspan? Parts look great and the assy is looking fine.

    You are correct about all the pitch and number of starts. Regarding the black oxide, I bought exactly the recommended parts from mcmaster.com. I think it was the cheapest 1/2, 5 start, 6 foot acme...

  21. Why a manual Router table when I have a CNC machine?

    Roundover, roundover, roundovers, and different edge effects. The 3 Axis CNC machine can do the basic roundovers on one side, but not both sides. The manual router table does edge roundovers in...

    V&B,
    Sorry to say, the JGRO is no longer with me. I sold it to another RC enthusiast. I used my JGRO to cut parts for the Hybrid 4x4. That was it's last project. It cut all the parts...

    Very nice wing. That LiteStick Fuse is really a fine test bed for flying slow. How did your new wing do in Rolls? I see you don't have any dihedral. So I'm guessing it will roll over pretty...
  24. Making a Drill Press Table

    I got a bug to make a drill press table. I guess I was reading too many DIY plans for Router Tables, and I stumbled on a few for Drill Press's. Here I decided to fore-go buying Tee tracks from...

    What could be better then to spend Father's day with your family, doing your favorite hobby. Yup, that's what I did on my father's day. Actually, this project started well before father's day, as my...

    The fence plans are copied from the New Yankee Work shop drawings and video. VcarvePro and Joe's 4x4 make short work of it.

    This is going to be a nice tool to supplement the CNC machine. Cutting profiles on the CNC then adding a round over on the manual router will be so easy. Today I assembled the Fence and dust port. ...

    Today I hinged the top, and cut and installed the zero clearance plug.
