Re: ER-32 Collet Nut Threads #MISC
LMS has already ordered spare collet nuts and has agreed to carry them as spare parts in the future, so problem solved! -- Regards, Charlie New Jersey, USA *SATTINGER¡¯S LAW: It works better if you

Re: ER-32 Collet Nut Threads #MISC
John, Great minds think alike! See photos. To make matters more interesting, this appears to actually be M44-1.0, not M40-1.0. Waiting to hear from LMS. -- Regards, Charlie New Jersey, USA

Re: ER-32 Collet Nut Threads #MISC
Have you checked the pitch with a thread gauge ? Have you swapped out and checked fitted against your other ER 32 nuts. I think a typo error, or most strange. If it is 1.0 mm pitch, then IMHO I see no

Re: ER-32 Collet Nut Threads #MISC
Bill, I am quite familiar with your situation, as I have a similar one for a different reason. There are some situations where spending any amount of money to resolve such issues is worth the

I figured you had checked it, but I've got the aging eyes problem, myself. About 5 years ago my eye doc said I'm developing cataracts, and I've noticed that I need more and brighter light, and often

Re: ER-32 Collet Nut Threads #MISC
Hi, Bill, Thanks for the documentation, Bill. I have saved it for future use. The thread spec is clearly shown on page 13-1. Rego-Fix are, as I understand it, the original developers of the ER collet

Re: ER-32 Collet Nut Threads #MISC
Ralph, Yeessss... but it would be tricky. The most difficult thing is the eccentric undercut that frees the collet from the chuck proper. As I see it, it would need one or more special cutting tools.

Re: ER-32 Collet Nut Threads #MISC
I'd talk check it again, and either talk to them about it, or return it. M40-1.5 is the standard for ER32 chucks. At least according to the Rego-fix documentation I have. See attached.? It's also

ER-32 Collet Nut Threads #MISC
Hello, All, I have several ER-32 collet chucks of different types; one for my mini-lathe, one for an R8 spindle to match my mini-mill, and a 2MT for my rotary table. These all use the same M40-1.5

Hi John, great to hear from you! I actually, almost have my Z motor mounted. I have tried a couple of methods of mounting the X motor. I have been active on the /g/AtomicELS

Re: CNC Machined 3-point Steady - #LATHES #CNC #CSS #DRO #RELS
Richard I agree, If you turh a "rail" into the rough bar stock to fit the width of the rollers, then I never had an issue over the past 53 years of making chips and they are intruding into the running

Re: CNC Machined 3-point Steady - #LATHES #CNC #CSS #DRO #RELS
Surely a sensible way to use a 3 point steady is to cut a hole in a piece of card or plastic and slide it over the work to stop the chips getting to the bearing areas. Hold to steady with tape or

Re: CNC Machined 3-point Steady - #LATHES #CNC #CSS #DRO #RELS
One of the more logical objections to using roller bearings on a steady rest was that they tend to drive swaf into the workpiece. I want to make up some bearing fingers for mine also. Ralph
