yes, I'll send you a message.
Yes, it sure is.
I recently shut down my small wood-working business and would like to find a good home for my 2014 PRS Alpha Shopbot machine.
Here are some of the specs for the machine:
2014 PRS Alpha 96" X...
Bumping this thread. Machine is available. All equipment has been sold except the shopbot. Currently in a storage pod in a climate controlled facility on the west coast. Willing to unbox and help...
Yes, the bot is loaded in a convenient container and can easily be shipped most anywhere in the U.S.
Shopbot is being loaded into a POD shipping container, assembled, and can be shipped to whoever buys it relatively inexpensively and easily.
Yes it is.
I Also have two social media accounts (facebook & instagram) with a few thousand subscribers that I am happy to turn over with the sale.
Hi Greg, yes. I can take pictures when I am back at the shop this weekend.
Well, the time has come to let go of this beautiful machine.
I have a lightly used (residential and small business use) 2014 PRS Alpha 96" X 48" X 12" Z
4hp HSD Spindle
6" indexer

Gary,
I’ve seen this video somewhere, cool every single time. Saw something I think... Did you change the sb or vfd root files somehow to have the spindle not stop itself after a part file? It...
Not necessarily looking for translucent. I was considering using rhino lining, what you would see in a pick up truck bed. The sikkens and permalac recommendations are good ones and will do research...
Thanks guys, two awesome answers. as always.
Hi gang,
I have been working on a couple statues made out of alaskan yellow cedar for about 2 years now. I'm getting close to finally putting this project on the done side of my to do list. However...
Not sure if this is happening to everyone, but once I opened that V bit file, my file folder I put it in starting syncing with the cloud, and the amount of files continued counting in the 3,000 range...
Have you ever take a spindle apart and looked at the guts? I feel like it would be a worthy itch to scratch to see what that thing looks like in pieces.
I'm not a guy who startles easy but can totally relate to jumping as a result of things the bot is doing. Or rather, things I made the bot do that it should not have. With all the diving for the...
Appreciate you posting your results to your search efforts. I would love to see that video if you don't mind recording it.
I think you may have a lead in or lead out checked. If you do that, it raises to the safe z and ramps /leads in on every new depth. If that's the reason, I know the problem well and lose my mind when...
Go with an Oneida cyclone. Pretty sure they are the best there is. If you are budget restricted, grizzly makes cyclones that I hear are not too bad. I have an Oneida and it's only 2 hp and it does a...
So I got it sorted out. The resolution multiple is 10 for my b axis and unit value of 277.7989. As I mentioned I spent a lot of time getting the move commands dialed in, so I did not have to adjust...
WOW. Now that is impressive.
This is golden information. Thank you Gary. I'll check it out as soon as I am back at my machine and report my findings. To check my understanding, once I get a number on the screen close to 1, I...
Gary, thank you. Multiple is 5, the unit values are weird for my indexer because it was not programmed from the factory or some jazz like that. Pretty much a whole lot of hours of trial and error got...
Hi guys,
Have a weird indexer issue. During program moves, any jog command causes the indexer to double the rotation.
Example:
JB 180 would cause a real life JB 360, but the little round...
He may chime in on his own but pretty sure the guy who teachers cnc at the maker space near USD has a buddy.
