For reasons that will soon become apparent I was searching for a milling machine spindle and came across this interesting item. BT30-ER20 tool holder, air powered draw bar for tool changing, HTD5...

Wow that is a massive overkill. You can simply get a timer relay and a metal clad resistor from CPC or Farnell to do the job. I used a Finder timer relay - I think it was this one last time...

And as per usual, you completely missed, or simply chose to ignore the bits Muzzer and I were correcting you on, with a big long rambling post.
I'm out. Have fun, interpreting things in whatever way...

There are quite a few Divas on here but I haven't seen any mystic Meg's yet and we can't afford crystal balls so your going to have to give us clue.!

Stan's had a change of heart...

I just noticed he's gone to the thread I made for him and deleted all the content from each post:...

Stan, I don't think any of us have bullied you, Neale, is only questioning the process and why you do it how you do. Which I must admit I tend to agree with him in that it does seem a very expensive...

No, Stan, we don't hate it, some of us really like what your posting, me included. we don't mind seeing it on the trending list all the time if it's an active topic. What we don't like is seeing...

I don't think I'm the only one getting a bit fed up with reading about variations on a theme of using a calibrated drawing board to digitise an outline.We know it can be done and we know somebody who...

I've got no issues with people promoting stuff honestly, but when they do it in less than transparent ways and act like a spammer, I do have issues.

Haasholes - it surely is a chinese machine in a purty box. It can machine plastics and wax and probably marzipan and chocolate too.

I have added an application on our website to help corectly size the motor requirements for lots of differrnt type of applications.
Its still a work in progress, so needs a bit more work to sort out...

Sorry but it's like buying a kite to learn basics of flying.

You need a proper mini mill at least to learn basics of machining. I wouldn't spend a single $ on a stuff like that. Also if you want...

You do realise this is a 6 year old thread?

A little detail:- This was the problem. There are two small 5mm screws that "secure" the X axis bearing block to the Y axis carriage. These were "like something in an old fashioned piece of...

Like wise same for the Anal types who chase unrealistic goals and fool...

Because 2D drawings and 2.5D CAM can be far faster, if you know what you are doing. 99% of what I do on my router are done with 2D CAD, where I can draw and create toolpaths faster than just creating...

I didn't need to give OP any advise because the correct advice had already been given by others. Unfortunately thou not by you and thou you don't like to hear this it must be said for the benifit of...

Smilies are wasted on some people :D

I've just got 4 to use on a machine so I'll tell you the difference.!

I now have uploaded files to the Flashair card in my 3D printer and just warming up to print. (Actually printing now !)

It was a bit of a struggle, but this is the way I have done it :-

The reason for the problem is that the 2nd set of coordinates is given with a G0, and the next two sets do not have any "G" command. Giving a set of coordinates without a "G" command means "repeat...

Now you know.

Hi guys apologies for the multi thread post I originally started this one and then later found the sub category thread which I was meant to use for my questions.

I took a plunge in buying the 6040...

A lot of problems on the forum are RTFM.
