Hello Terry,

Welcome to the ranks of a participating member of this list!!

I think you will find a tremendous amount of help and support here and will
never find that the list is short of opinions or suggestions. It sounds as
if you are feeling a little overwhelmed by this whole CNC thing. If there
are specific areas that are causing you problems just post it to the list
and we will all try to get you through them. This post seems a little vague
on the area we can provide assistance with.

Regarding the encoder wheel on the shaft problem, I have enjoyed the thread
and found it interesting. You have to understand that what we are trying to
remove is a disc 2" in diameter that is about .005" thick and has 1000 slots
near the outer circumference. If you just look at them crooked you can bend
the slots or warp the disk. To make it harder they are bonded to the shaft
with a epoxy like substance.

Welcome aboard,


Tim

adventure. Also check out Camtronics at and
