All,

That looks super good.

Lets see what you can do with it. I have an email off to you.

Thanks for posting that photo,
I'm getting ready to set my indexer up also.
Got this large acorn looking thing to attempt cut.

Don,
give me some more detail, i might be able to help you with some toolpathing.

Don,
I just sent you two word documents (via email) that have lots of photos and detail as to how I set mine up. I had to send it in 2 files because of the size limit in hotmail. The photos are big. I probably should have compressed them.

Jack I'll be sure to get ahold of you when I'm ready, I still need to pull the index out of the box and follow Todds steps to set this thing up.
I'll probably be ready to cut by the middle to the end of next week.


Todd, Thanks for those word docs. I'll have to figure out a few things as I've got a prt not an Alpha.
With your setup how much width and diameter do you have?

[toddmaci]

Don,
I have about 37" between centers and I think I could do 10" diameter.

Thanks Todd

I've decided to mount my indexer along the X-axis using Unistrut "tracks".
