The electric fuel pump is your best bet. No duty cycle. The washer pump will not hold up to oil bases. You could buy an external one new, but if you like cheap, pick up an in tank type from the

I'm trying to convert my mill/drill to DRO on the cheap (being a college kid and not having much cash to spare), and right now I've got the option of doing it with 0.0004" resolution on all three axis

Jerry, I have already uploaded that file to Bob. Marv Frankel Los Angeles

What ever happened to the Nuts and Volts cnc article that was to air in the Nov. issue? Brian

I just measured my SERIES I, and it's 87.5" OA.H. Not sure how S. I & S. II compare. Could you bring the machine in on it's 'back', or it's 'tummy'... maybe on it's side? Cut a hole on the door if you

John, I did my mill/drill for less than $200 for all THREE axis and that included a used computer/monitor!!! The biggest cost will be the encoders; however if you can find an old deskjet printer,

John, Thanks as that makes more sense than anything I have heard! As stated previously, I have limited my upper rpm, but this is mainly due to the heating that occurs on the lower end of the quill.

Jeff: Its $85 for 600mm, $50 for 166-200mm lengths (asked about that length range for my Y and Z axis). Its a good thing you mentioned EncoderTech, I never did the math on the metric scales, and only

Hobby CNC is pleased to announce that we have lowered the price on our 60oz-in CNC package to close out levels. NEW lower prices on our planset, driver boards, and other CNC packages too! We have

I don't know about using a windsheld washer pump for this for safety reasons. IMHO a external electric fuel pump from a car would be a better idea. Bill Higdon

Fast response time on Encodertech's part (like within 3 minutes of my query), there wont be any 720CPI scales in lengths longer than 3.25" until someone pays for the master to be made ($1200) and then

Mark, If it was my money, I'd look for a good used Bridgeport here on the west coast, which can be had for less than your $2,000. Marv Frankel Los Angeles

This may get axed as off topic - and if so I apologize and would welcome people to respond off list, its just that I know of no other group that would have good ideas. When I'm machining

As of 10/11, Encodertech did not have any 720CPI strips in stock in lengths above 3.25", that might have changed, I did not ask. I'll look into it. John

I can't be sure, but I expect that the side load on the shaft and bearings in belted duty is the reason for the lower speed limit. I am most familiar with larger motors (5HP and up, to 600-1000 HP).

Thanks Jerry, I'm going to follow up with the link you provided to get info on them too. It wouldn't take too many people to make the shipping cost dramatically reduce. Mark

Ditto... I went to NAMES for the first time this year. I spent most of Sunday hanging around the CNC area talking to Jon Elson and others. They pointed me to this group and re-kindled my interest
