Re: My GM811G DEC Has Developed a Wiggle...
Hmm, to me the screw tends to unscrew with time. So a nuts on the outer side wouldn't help IMO. A 3D printed part on the inner side might prevent the OPWB from moving thus loosing the spring loaded
Re: My G11/Gemini Lives!
Chip, I agree on not cleaning. In my experience, I have come to a rule of thumb: If it works don't touch it. Hardware wise I know for a fact that if you have badly corroded lanes on a PCB you might

Re: My GM811G DEC Has Developed a Wiggle...
You're right Jim, I just tried. Flat side of the nut fits but the corner does not. I might 3d print something...

Re: My G11/Gemini Lives!
For those following the thread here is something to think about. If?something is working fine and as I had originally qualified, the insides are shiny and clean, why mess with it? SMD boards are

Re: My GM811G DEC Has Developed a Wiggle...
Jamie - I just looked.? A locking nut will not fit.? Its too close to the other screw.
Re: My GM811G DEC Has Developed a Wiggle...
I just saw this post with the locktite idea and thought, what a great idea. I thought about it some more and then I thought of a simple solution that would make adjusting easier. I took a look at the

Re: My G11/Gemini Lives!
I have to agree with Astronut here. And Terry, WOW man that is so cool :-D I was telling your story to a friend of mine and he was so impressed! And with the weather you have in the UK it makes it

Re: My G11/Gemini Lives!
Jeez Guys... I normally enjoy the friendly banter between you guys, but is this really how you want Terry to perceive some of the sharper minds on this forum ? You know, I'm just another nut loose
Re: My GM811G DEC Has Developed a Wiggle...
Good find, Carl. I'll remember that. There are so many things I like about Scott's mounts. The utter simplicity in the design being a main attraction for me. Everything is very easy to access, and

My first computer I worked with/on was a Univac 9000 in the Mid 1970's. For all it's gigantic needs, it was little more than a giant reel to reel recorder, with racks and racks of tape reels.

Re: My GM811G DEC Has Developed a Wiggle...
Hey Jim, I bought myself a small tube of blue loctite thinking exactly the same. But I didn't put it yet and must say it has been quite stable for me once tuned properly. However not sure if your

Re: TCP connection
OK, so I couldn't be happier. I made a simple update to the indi driver so that it never sends guide commands when slewing, and I can't make the haywire slew happen. This was happening 100% before,

Scott does use Loctite Brand blue thread locker, where it is needed. When I was there to pick up my GM811G HD, Scott had a new shipment of the biggest bottles of Loctite Brand thread locker on his
