Shopbot has sold
Sorry for the delayed response. Apparently the website link I included didn't make it past the moderator?
I remilled the knife receiver to accept a Stanely 11-041 knife. Much sharper and a finer...
It is/was a Donek D1 but I remilled the knife receiver head to accept a 10-049 knife, which is much sharper, heavier, and a finer point. I'm still using it a little but if the buyer doesn't want it...

price reduced to $11,000
Bought this used in 2012. I've used it lightly to cut ski cores and bases but the business isn't working so its time to sell it.
I would consider selling in pieces but would like to try to get it...
Rails are spot on strait after removing all the lumber and moving the cross members up to the aluminum extrusions.
Just need to square it up and rebuild the bed and we will back up and running soon....
So here is what I think the next step should be after removing the z extensions.
While the cross members are all loose, "twist" the machine to square it up on the cross measurements. Currently,...
This topic seems to be beaten to death but I thought I'd ask for advice. My head is swimming with all of the forum topics I've hit over the last couple of weeks.
I've disassembled the plenum and...
Count two more, we'll trek it out from Utah.
Interesting thread. I'm glad the consensus is that fire suppression is not necessary. Not something I had considered even though I actually started a fire strait out of the gate after buying a used...
So it turns out a $2 part sent me on a wild goose chase. One of my receptacles in the shop was shorting internally. Sheesh. Where's my whiskey. Glad we got it figured out tho. Everything is working...
So after everything we've been through it was a $2 problem. One of my outlets in my shop was internally shorted. Replaced the outlet and we connect just fine. I haven't powered the spindle yet but...
That is good info. I had assumed the bare wire to my service entrance would be ground, not neutral. I haven't noticed a grounding rod or grounding wire to my plumbing but I will investigate further...
Thanks. I read this to mean that I want to completely isolate the neutral to avoid the chance of applying current to the ground portion of the circuit. I guess I'm just confused about why there is...
Ok, here is my follow-up. It took my box a month to get from Utah to NC. It seems the post office lost it. :eek: The collective reply to that has been "how the @#$% did they lose a 50 pound box"....
Our gently used bot will not operate. The guys at ShopBot say I need a dedicated neutral and a ground for proper communication. My home is a little older (1961) so my main panel has a single ground...
Trust me, there was plenty of the Carlin spirit alive in my shop when this all went down. We did consider jumping the scorched spots but being the noobs that we are we decided to send it it before we...
Thought I'd follow up on the wire mystery. We are probably the 3rd owner of this machine and it was originally equipped to run 3 phase and the last owner converted it to single phase, hence the extra...
Looks like I'll be harassing you all for a while more.
PRTAlpha was connecting intermittently when we bought it. When I say intermittently, I mean connect for a second or two then comm error. Now...
Thanks Gene,
Frank from sb said he would send them to me. I guess I had him thinking I was after the circuit board schematics.
I've emailed SB and been told they don't have schematics for my machine????
I'll be calling them in the morning, maybe I wasn't clear enough about what I was needing.
The assembly manual for my...
I am also trying to bring back a PRT alpha of similar age and having the same problem. I will be following this post with interest. Please report if you find a fix! I will do the same. Thanks
Thanks for the quick replies.
I've read nothing but good things about their support. Still, I wanted to get as much figured out as possible before calling and sounding like a bumbling fool.
I...
We just purchased a ShopBot from auction so we were unable to learn anything about it from the previous owner. I'm hoping for a little more info before I call for support. Our current hangup is that...
