Hey all. Considering selling my 48x96 standard with indexer attachment Updated drivers, porter cable router, pressure foot, dust boot.
Also has harbor freight dust collector with updated filter....
Ok.. I think I got it..?but I want to reply in case it may help someone later..
When checking problems earlier, SB had me slow my indexer down pretty slow.. When programming, I had only a .01 in...
Hey guys.. I've had a few of you guys already helping me, and had SB guys helping, but still having fits.. Originally, I was trying to turn a profile on the indexer.. but lost comm at the same spot...
Thanks guys.. I am really wanting symmetrical round turnings..like spindles, etc.. But you guys are right in that in the future, I may want more detailed turnings.. who knows.. I have been buying the...
Hey all.. I've been cutting 2D with ply for about 3-4 years.. I am interested in cutting simple profiles for table legs ranging from 12-32 inches in length.. maybe 4 up to 12 inches in diameter.. No...
thanks for the replies. I use good ply, and it is painted.. I am currently cutting at 3ips... and not looking for a "dramatic" increase in speed.. It has been fine for 2 years cutting up to 10...
thanks. I have a 4g control board. at about 78% communication. Mostly carving words.. Most are not that detailed. about 2.5-3"
Thanks for the input.. I am already carving in the plywood,, Have been doing so for about 2 years. I am just curious whether I can go faster than 3ips.
Hey all.. just a quick question. I have a PRT standard with a porter cable router. I am doing some carving in 3/4" ply only between .15 - .20" in depth. I am using a 90 degree v bit. I am carving...
Thanks David. I called the zoning commissioner and we are going to do some tests to see how loud it will be. The restaurant is really a small pizza place only 40 feet deep.. my section would be...
Thanks guys.. It's looking like my best bet is to look for more of an industrial location or build a shop outside my home.. Just gonna have to wait for the time being.. Thanks for all the honesty!
...
Thanks Ken. One catch is that our business is not all production. We do some light assembly, but a retail location is definitely needed. This location just is very inexpensive, perfect location,...
thanks Steve. Do you think building a wall around the SB.. combined with the 12" concrete can eliminate most of the squealing sounds?
Hey all.. needing some advice. Have an opportunity to expand our business. Producing out of our home now, but have a chance to rent a "much Larger" area. We will be wholesaling and retailing. ...
thanks guys.. Definitely not the collet..
Ron.. I'm not sure what the Z pinion grub screw is.?
Ken.. the moves and jogs both go equal distance.. it is in the long cuts that have the gradual...
Ok guys.. been a while since I've been here.. but.. I have an older PRS standard with a 4g control box..when doing a longer carve: 45 mins or longer, at the end of the cut, the Z is between .25 and...
Thanks guys.. I'll take a look at these..
Hey all.. Does anyone know where i can find a good selection of cross vectors? we are looking for some intricate designs, but are having a hard time finding what we are looking for.. Thanks alot.

Ok... down to thinkin it's the driver.. I switched motors with the x and the problem stayed on Y.. so, calling shopbot... no more 4G board.. I called expecting to choke out $1700... but now the new...
Hey Jim.. seems like the pinion is tight with enough tension. I switched the Y cable with one of the x cables.. so one of the X cables controlling the Y motor.. with a little resistance, it still...
Ok Jack.. I did the air cut and with a very slight resistance in Y, it stops like it does while cutting material.. did ok in X direction, but stops in Y.. even while jogging..
does this sound like...
Thanks Jack.. the speeds are the same.. I tried a new serial cable... the IO Gear SB recommends.. still didn't work.. It doesn't really bog down.. i thought it did.. just seems like it cause the bit...
Hey Erik.. I'll try the cable.. Do you mean try a diff PC router or another computer? I don't have another router, but i'll try a different computer.. I have it on a laptop. I'll try another one. I...
