Re: Yahoo groups is shutting down, should we save the content? - lets do it
Just now I have been given the privileges needed to transfer the group to 开云体育. The process has been kicked off, and hopefully there is enough time for it to happen. Because of name restrictions (no underscore allowed in names) the new group will be here: The transfer may take a couple of weeks based on current backlog. You do not need to subscribe to the new group, that should happen automatically and your welcome email will provide an option to not be subscribed if you are no longer interested. Meanwhile subscription requests and attempts to post will be moderated and delayed until the group is loaded onto 开云体育 servers. Thanks to all who helped me get the access needed. Regards, Steve Stallings |

Re: Yahoo groups is shutting down, should we save the content? - lets do it
开云体育Hi Bill,
?
You are still an owner for the
group on Yahoo.
?
The first step would be trying to log into
with the user name:? wcanliker
?
Don't be surprised if Yahoo seems to hang and leaves you with a blank
page. Their servers are overloaded due to the pending shutdown. Just try
refreshing the page and if necessary, try again.
?
Then, if you can remember your password, enter that when requested.
?
If you do not remember your password, the sign-in page will have a
link for "I forgot my password" directly under the place where you typed in your
user name.
?
If you had given Yahoo a cell phone number, it will ask if you can
access that cell phone number. If you answer?YES, it will send you a?verification number
via a text message.
?
You then put that number into the web page that comes up after you
answered?YES.
?
If you answer?NO or you have
never given Yahoo a cell phone number, it will send?the verification number?to you via
email using the same email address?as you
normally use. I cannot confirm that because they have my cell number and
I have not seen the alternate email method in action.
?
You will probably now be asked to provide other information to assist
in the case of future verification efforts. Hopefully you can opt out of those
unless you want to provide it.
?
Once you get signed into Yahoo groups, go to the CAD_CAM_EDM_DRO
page. Near the top right of the page there will be a link for "Management" with
a down arrow next to it.
?
Click on the down arrow and select "Manage Members".
?
On the resulting page listing the members, there will be a "Search
Members" box near the top right of the page.
?
Enter "morerust" without the quotes into the search box and click on
the magnifying glass to start the search.
?
It should find Steve Stallings as morerust. Click on the name
"morerust" in the list shown. This will pop up an Edit Member dialog
box.
?
In the box beside the entry for Role, click on the down arrow and select
Owner, and then click on?SAVE at the
bottom of the dialog box. Clicking on SAVE is
required for this to work.
?
This will change my status to co-owner. You will also remain as the
owner.
?
Thanks,
Steve Stallings From: CAD_CAM_EDM_DRO@...

CCED Move
I was the original List Mom, and started this group after a trip to NAMES.
Somewhere along the way I got dropped from the CCED group, as either
the owner(List Mom) or as a moderator..
I would suggest that the early information be retained somewhere, I feel
that even if it is old that there is a lot of useful information contained therein.
I do not have the skills to try to help move the content, but I hope that
someone steps forward to do so.
I am now 84 years old, and no longer active in the group, or the shop.
Wm. Anliker, Original List Mom

Yahoo Groups is shutting down. Should we consider moving group to 开云体育
This may be a duplicate post. My first attempt seemed to get lost. On 28 October this group will no longer accept new posts, and in December the content will go away. |

Selling Sherline 5400 CNC ready
Not sure where the in groups are for Sherline and small CNC machines. Any suggestion of good groups where I can post selling this item would be greatly appreciated. New in Box, outer carton has been opened, but inside boxes and packing is all still in place. Sherline Mill 5400 CNC ready. Is about a 5 year old version, but has stored in climate controlled indoors and not unpackaged. Range of accessories also new in box available with the mill. I believe it is the accessory pack that is optional with the mill. Any suggestions appreciated, Tim G timg@... |

Re: Looking for software for Acumtion 4-axis driver
AcuMotion made the MyTMill systems. The early ones were
phase drive from the parallel port, and I do not know what the signal pin assignments were. The newer step and directions versions used this pinout: Axis?? Step?? Direction ? X?????? 2???????? 3 ? Y????? 4???????? 5 ? Z????? 6???????? 7 The older drivers were unipolar for 6 wire motors. They were half step drivers which results in 8000 steps per inch. Later systems offered bipolar drives but I do not know their specifications. The MyTmill systems were delivered with their own software, but should run just fine with LinuxCNC or Mach software driving the parallel port. Steve PMDX |

Doesn't this just use software-generated step/direction?? I think that Sherline was using a version of EMC by 2003.? EMC has become LinuxCNC, and MANY improvements have been added.? If the "controller" is in fact just expecting step/direction through the parallel port, then you should be able to load LinuxCNC onto a modern PC with a parallel port, and pick the configuration from the list.? Most PCs today do NOT have built-in parports, so you just get a PCIe plug-in card for it. See linuxcnc.org to download linuxcnc. Jon |

Looking for software for Acumtion 4-axis driver
A *long* time ago (circa 2003?) I bought a Sherline multi-axis mill and got the Acumtion controller that attaches to the parallel port of a PC.? Does anyone have a source for the program that runs this?? I'm trying to get this up and going again.? I have everything except the software that ran the motors from the G-code.? Any help is greatly appreciated. -Kip Mussatt |

Re: 22" travel single axis suggestions
I agree with Dennis, we use profile rail ( THK, HiWinn, Nook, Bosch etc.) all the time on the special machines we produce. And they are the best option. You can get non-bearing type too depending on your application. I am just chiming in, because your tolerances are very tight and I am not sure these rails will get you there. Mcmaster is a great company, if you email them they answer quickly. I would ask what the tolerance per ft. is with these. If you can loosen your tolerance or if they meet your requirements they are def. the way to go, Also if you contact a profile rail distributor, they can spec something out for you - ie. a higher preload blocks for tighter tolerances you can buy. These can be really stiff to move.. (depending). ?Sometimes if we are using profile rail for only material handling we order the blocks with a lower tolerance (or we replace with slightly smaller balls) because we do not need the accuracy and /or are mounting to an imperfect surface over many feet. Just my $.02 but you should be able to find something? for your application in your price range. -Dave ?

Tim, take a look at McMaster Carr part numbers 6250K32, and 6250K34 on their website mcmastercarr.com. These two items are within your $500 budget. The rail can be mounted to something solid, and shimed to be true to your specifications. There are many other sizes and options to choose from.. One of the larger rails may even work unsupported throughout except at each end. Denis K.
