00:45 rue_shop2 I'M GONNA HAVE TO REBUILD THAT MOTOR OR THAT SQUEEK GONNA DRIVE ME CRAZY!
00:45 rue_shop2 GuShH, yea, even on a 2 thou pass I see something major being put in the cut
00:46 rue_shop2 the plate underneeth is what your on about?
02:48 GargantuaSauce_ orlock: holy shit
02:49 GargantuaSauce_ that is obviously a pile of crap but the price is right
11:10 rue_more is that extruded aluminum worth that much?
14:50 MrCurious something exciting going on on freenet?
14:54 GuShH rue_more: http://youtu.be/wGh0KX1Wqjc Meh that was a month or so ago, now it's back to 5 chou off (that's chinese thou)
14:55 GuShH not sure if it's wear on the nut or the jamnut manages to loose itself up
14:55 GuShH at any rate I'm considering a guide delrin nut
23:08 GuShh_Lap rue_more: bah without the 60� gage template I can't get the tool right... http://gushh.net/tmp/dscn5588f.jpg
23:08 GuShh_Lap it's damn close, but no cigar.
23:13 GuShh_Lap seems I need to grind the top as well
23:15 GuShh_Lap but ... to what angle.. for the top relief...
23:15 Hyratel I wonder what the timecost of overhauling this movable vise would be to fix it up how you're fixing up the static vise
23:15 GuShh_Lap 0 if your weekend is free
23:15 GuShh_Lap about 10 bucks worth in materials if you don't have them already.
23:16 GuShh_Lap what the hell nobody describes the top relief angle...
23:16 GuShh_Lap I will get a nose radius on the honing stone, but crap... top angle anyone
23:17 Hyratel GuShh_Lap, do you work as a machinist professionally or is it a BigHobby for you?
23:17 GuShh_Lap mostly a hobby, the odd job here and there though.
23:18 Hyratel so Hobby+Commission?
23:18 GuShh_Lap right now I want to thread a UNF shaft for a small jacobs type chuck, small project.
23:18 GuShh_Lap my insert threading tool has a massive nose radius, can't use it for these fine threads... so I'm making an HSS tool
23:19 GuShh_Lap (as in, I don't have the right inserts right now)
23:20 GuShh_Lap can't find it on my machinery's handbook pdf... so I'm looking online, no two drawings agree
23:20 GuShh_Lap http://its.foxvalleytech.com/machshop2/images/lathes/thrd_fig2.gif no top relief angle there
23:23 Shh_Lap p
23:24 Hyratel GuShh_Lap, the tool you ahve has a too-large circular kerf?
23:24 GuShh_Lap yup for bigger threads
23:25 GuShh_Lap the one I just made is close enough (it would work) but I wanted to know that last detail
23:26 GuShh_Lap 18" cobalt hss is nice for this
23:26 GuShh_Lap err 18%
