I like to touch up my bits with a good diamond hone while still on the machine.

May need a newer version of Flash player

I recently purchased a 40x frozen Leupold scope with the TSI scope mount system. I know many of you are shooting, or have shot this setup. I am looking for some advise on the adjustments. Which locking screw do you prefer the spring loaded bushing screw or the regular screw? Do you guys lock...

I plan to bush the bolt

I just finished up an the machine work on a 700 action that I set on an 8 bolt jig and dialed it with a .5 drill rod and snug fitting bushings. I had to cut .003 off the face and .003 off the internal locking lug. The top of the threads had to be cut .010 to clean up. I then chased the threads...

The media has picked up on this story, heres a couple of videos. One by Cam Edwards and one by Glenn Beck http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wslpVZJCUWQ http://web.gbtv.com/media/video.jsp?content_id=20878221&source=GBTV If nothing else, at least our voices are being heard.

Im would think the response was from their social networking PR person, but Im sure the BofA officials know about it as there was a lot of negative comments on their Facebook and Twitter

After being flamed on Facebook by many unhappy customers heres their retort: We want to let you know that we hear your comments and questions regarding one of our customers. While we cannot discuss the details of any individual client we work with, we can assure you the allegations being made...

Heres an update of my upgrade project. I have been able to integrate the original controls on the lathe to work with the vfd. The potentiometer should be here tomorrow, and that should rap it! It has been a fun learning experience, and it feels like a completely different machine. What...

Thats a great idea...Good job!

OK..I got the lathe up and running with the new motor and VFD! So far it seems to run great, but Im getting a high pitch squeal from the motor when VFD is running it. Also I need a tach to check the actual rmps on the motor as Im not sure what the bearings inside the lathe are rated for. heres...

Do you happen to have any pics of your setup or info for programming the vfd for this application? Thanks, JCK

Thanks for the Info! I ordered a North American Electric 3 phase 2HP TEFC motor, a Huanyang vfd, and a 4 step pulley to match the motor and existing pulley. Hopefully they will arrive next week. Im still trying to plan out my setup, I would like to locate a pot on the front of the machine and...

Im looking for info for upgrading machine to a better motor with less vibration. I am considering a dc motor and controller, 3 phase motor with converter or vfd, or any good info. I know many of you have done the same and any product info and pricing would be great. Also how you guys matched...

Awesome Kris, that would be great!

I have already isolated the bracket with rubber and it made a huge difference. The machine produces pretty nice smooth finishes now but I can still feel that 60 cycle hum(with the pulley and belt removed) a little bit on the carriage and quite a bit on the headstock. I would like to get a way...

thanks Mike! Your website and info have been very helpful to me!

I know many including my self have had lathe vibration issues, most of which it seems can be isolated to the motor (usually 240 single phase) mounted directly to the base of the machine. I and many others have been able to correct a lot of the issues by isolating the machine from the motor with...
