Re: Have you seen the new Fireball vise
I watched a video awhile back talking about the fall off the steel industry in the US. It talked about how while other countries were investing in new techniques and better equipment, steel Mills in the US continued to rely on the old way if doing things because it costs money to improve. I'm all fo...

Re: Toolbox drawer labels
...I'll stick to my white Ptouch labeling since the tool carts are black. These ARE p-touch labels. These are the clear ones. You can stick the white ones on magnetics, too. Steve I used the white on clear and put them on black poster board to slide into the handles on my us general boxes with the ...

Re: Hercus 260 Apron Problem
How well does the pin fit the hole? It looks like it is at an angle in the picture. Any wear in the home could allow it to bind up.

Re: help with thread chart on lathe
Looks like it says metric, feed, and whitworth. The charts seem to correlate to that.

I read that as axis summoning! I know making stuff is a spiritual experience for me but I didn't know it was being Incorporated into DROs!

Re: Drilling small holes with a vertical mill
If op is going to use a 15, then less than 1.5mm. granted, there's a big difference between 1/16" and 0.025"!

Re: Drilling small holes with a vertical mill
I've used my 8" harbor freight dp for drilling pcb holes with tiny carbide drills before. It's just a matter of eliminating the runout in the Chuck. You won't be applying a lot of pressure so it's more about runout than rigidity.

Re: Power feed for mill table
I still think you are barking up the wrong tree with all the Bridgeport clone kits. Without some dimensions or at least some better pictures of the OP machine is going to be hard to match it to anything. From all the pictures I see on the web, I think it's going to be closer in size to one of the mi...
