Hopefully that's fixed it. If it was loose the force on the bit would push it out of line. Let us know if it doesn't solve the problem. Alex....
Hi @Aeneas, is there a possibility that your X axis is very slightly twisted at the left side? I don't have a C-beam, but I guess there are two...
Hi @Cortellini - your PDF attachment doesn't seem to have worked. Alex.
Indeed - it is easy to overlook the risks in what seems like a harmless activity and stuff we take for granted. A temporary lash up is fine for...
Hi Kevon, you are, of course, correct, but we live in a world where we need to take care what we advise other people to do and any growth...
Hi @Aleksejs, I know nothing about water cooling spindles, but the coolant in cars is water - with anti - freeze added - not something you are...
