    Re: Mach 3 quit reading machine end stops.

    Strange. Today it all works. Not sure what I did to fix it but I guess that's OK, I,m not sure what I did to break it. When it broke nothing (that I know of) was changed. I hadn't even been in...

    Mach 3 quit reading machine end stops.

    I did something, but I don't know what. Yesterday when I was messing with my Pro2448 all was well. If I hit an end stop Mach 3 read it and stopped travel as it should. Today, not so well. I'm...

    Re: Added water cooled spindle to my PRO4824

    Martec54,

    Let me start by repeating the last part of my first post, "This is how I did it and made it work. It doesn’t mean it’s the right way to do it.". That was an invitation for just this type...

    Re: Added water cooled spindle to my PRO4824

    Mactec54,

    I thought I made it pretty clear that the 4th wire should be run for ground. I just don't see the need to do it in the shielded cable and connect it to a pin that doesn't go anywhere. ...
  6. Spindle Wrenches for the Chinese spindles

    Every now and then you come across something that is worth mentioning. In this case its a set of collet wrenches from Probotix.com. For the record, I'm not associated with Probotix in any way, just...

    Re: Added water cooled spindle to my PRO4824

    Here is my latest addition to the spindle. For the water cooled Chinese spindles the wrench sizes are a little strange. The collet is 29.8mm and the spindle flat is 21.15. I found some collet...

    Re: Added water cooled spindle to my PRO4824

    Fitting the cable into the connector wasn't really that bad. It was tight but doable. It made it a easier that I didn't connect that 4th wire. 16AWG is about as large as you can go though. If I...

    Added water cooled spindle to my PRO4824

    I upgraded my CNCRP 4824 Pro from a PC router to a water cooled spindle. It wasn’t really as easy (or cheap) as I thought it would be but it was fun and well worth the time and effort. The best...

    Re: One more new Pro4824 Build

    Gigawatt,
    Yea, I have the same concerns. The only thing I've cut so far on this machine are the 3/8" thick panels in the doll house. Holding them at the corners seemed to work well. The one thing...

    One more new Pro4824 Build

    I picked up my new machine about 6 weeks ago. It took about 2 weeks to get completely assembled to the point I was ready to actually do something. It could be done a lot quicker but I was somewhat...

    Re: XZero CNC

    Thanks for the info guys. Sounds like the plates that George uses is one of those unobtainium things for now.

    Re: XZero CNC

    Question for someone in the know. Where can one buy the material that George uses one his Al table tops. It looks to be the standard 1/4" slots. All I can find are the metric versions of the...

    Re: PRO 4824 Build in Tennessee

    I see on you machine that you have five cross pieces in the four foot dimension. The pics on the cnc prep site only have three. Did you add some or is five the default?
