I've machined silicon bronze shafts for a boating buddy and found it fun. It makes very pretty ribbony swarf. IT's tough, similar to SS. For slitting saws...
I have a Rong Fu 45 and the weights should be similar. I have weighed all the compoments at one time or another. I don't have the exact numbers infront of me...
That is great news. It sounds like it will be much less of a problem then I had feared. I have been hesitant to get a RF45 based upon the overall weight. ...
The RF-45's and clones are in demand. I was in Wholesale Tool in Indy Friday and they said they did not have any in any of their stores. And Lathemaster has...
My DM-45 clone has a clear tube that comes out of a fitting on the right side of the top of the head. This tube crosses over to the other side of the head and...
... As far as I know, it is a drain hose so when you turn the head upside down to drain out the oil, you can put a bucket under it. Some of the clones have a...
... the ... upside ... the ... doesn't. It ... either. ... Thanks, I kinda thought it might be a breather also but didn't think about using it for a drain....
Are you guys talking about a gear-head mill? Randy " The difference between Genuis and Stupidity is that Genius has its limits" ... From: casjap To:...
I use my milling machine for longer parts. In order to do this I set up two milling machine vises. I purchased two 4" Kurt Clone vises but they do not line...
OOPS! sorry for not making myself clear. The heights of the two vises is right on. The back side of the vises is where the problem is. If I use an edge...
May I assume you don't have .42" of runout on the table <g>? Also, may I assume the problem is that you're attaching the vises with t-nuts and bolts, that one...
If your using keys on the bottom of the vices, then you will have to make a set of off set keys to align them. or remachine the keyways wider, and make new ...
I recieved my 6" Rotary table today from Wholesale Tool. I am happy with what came out of the box. No grinding, a tight rotary action, of course the usual...
The tube is a vent/oil overflow, sometimes is actually goes somewhere (nowhere important), sometimes it's simply a cap with a hole in it. The biggest reason...
P/N 1990-0014 Played with it a little last night, seems to work OK. I have not ckecked parrellism yet, will probably be weekend before I get to. Tom Randy...
Hi Aaron, I'm no sure this is the case. For example: If the geared head contains say 1 gallon or air and one gallon of oil then after you churn it up to create...
Philip, If you are confident in your argument, then I suggest that you take a kitchen blender, fill it with a bunch of stuff, place the lid on top. Do not clip...
Foam has pressure??? Well It doesn't. The reason the lid flies off the blender is the vortex created by the cutter, pulls the contense down and up the sides...
Does anyone know where I could get a set of plans for a Slotter attachment (to fit onto quill) and/or a rotary cros slide attachment (like Volstro makes &...
Well ... I bought one of those enco swivel base vises everyone is ravin about LOL .. I came in a box which was inside another box with NO PACKING material .....
This example is not about foaming this is about physical impact of the material on the underside of the lid. It's not relevant. Sorry Regards Phil Burman ... ...
