RE: Latest Delivery - Highpower - 10-27-2017
Used properly yes. But I can still bounce a part off a parallel with a dead blow hammer with too much force. That's what I normally use. It only takes a "thou" or two to end up with a sliding parallel. I find I'm much more careful with how hard I swing a small lead hammer vs. a plastic dead blow though. I guess subconsciously I feel like the plastic hammer is a "toy" and I have to swing it harder.

Thank you, using a brass hammer, got a dead blow I can try...

It bounces back off of the parallel(s) just enough to let them slide under the part. Light taps work better for me. Possibly a difference in the materials between your blank and your 1-2-3 block causing a difference in rebound?
Did you deburr the edges of your blank after milling? I've been caught up by a sharp edge of a part hitting an inside corner of the vice in the past as well. Again my fault, for being in a hurry and deburring 11 edges of a block instead of all 12.
Thank you good points, regarding the bounce I do pound, will try backing off, yes deburr all 12 edges LMAO

Sears Craftsman arc stabilizer. For converting an AC/DC welder into a TIG. Best I can determine is that it dates from 1984 and looks brand new!

Finally tracked down a shaper vice. 10 inch jaws, tips the scale at 110 pounds

That's much nicer than this oldie I picked up last week. 150mm jaws and about 26kg.

Good stuff Greg, at a glance that looks identical to the one I found, I remember now you asked me about the weight and I forgot to reply after weighing mine, 48kg / 105lb. Makes a big difference after trying to make do with a mill vice.
RE: Latest Delivery - Pete O - 12-11-2017
I caught up with Steve G the other day- more on the reason for that in a couple of weeks- but he was extremely generous to me and donated the magnetic swarf tool that he posted about recently. Thanks Steve, my chip trays have never been cleaner and even the joints in my concrete floor are feeling the love!

RE: Latest Delivery - SteveG - 12-11-2017
All good Pete - great to finally catch up and glad you found the swarf tool useful.
I've found mine really useful, and use it particularly to clean up around the lathe after every use. Even if I'm half way through a job and have to call curtains for the night I'll still give it a run around on the floor. Helps to keep peace in the house when neither myself or the dogs are dragging swarf in on our paws...
I'm hanging out for Christmas to see what Santa fronts up with ;)

RE: Latest Delivery - Vinny - 12-23-2017
This showed up yesterday and I promptly put it together. It was a lot easier to put together than the 3D printer was, that's for sure. Only one acrylic piece to peel the paper off of. The nuts used for the frame didn't have very high quality control, a few of them had to visit the grinder so they'd fit - too fat! Must have something to do with the holidays!

So far I've only been able to move it around, in the process of installing LinuxCNC on the laptop to see what I can do with hit. I plan on using it for PCBs, but I'm sure it'll be used for other projects too.

Very cool, Vinnie!
