I ran Pex in my walls to run my air. For my tools and p-cam. It's tidy and cheep. I already had the crimper from doing my slab.

I know right. Guess i better start rounding up some cardboard for templates.

Has anybody built an aluminum fiver boat. I had an 18 60 seaark in mind but any advice or direction would be appreciated.
I have a bunch of shallow water tiller time an run a bunch of different boats. I know what I want I just was looking for some pointers on layout and construction.

that is awesome.

We meet again Mr SignTorch! You where a great help with my stepper motor question. Yes that is what I meant by settings. My computer vocabulary is a bit nomadic. Everything you posted is exactly correct. I wish I would have checked this post a little earlier. It would have saved me a bit of time bei...

has anybody used pcam with windows 8? having trouble finding the epp setting in the bios. i restart in the setting mode but dont see epp anywhere.

Awesome thanks for the Info on the computer. There is a computer shop in Fairbanks. Ill stop by there next time I go up. I checked resistance on the z motor and it was right around 350. Thanks for that info as well. Ill get a new pc and cable and to from there. Thanks for the help I will post my res...

does anybody know what they charge for a z motor at pcam? do i need to send a core?
has anybody bought an aftermarket one?

well my exp with electric motors is mainly with 480 3 phase for conveyors and of pickiup starters. i google imaged servo motor and stepper motor, the z motor i believe is a stepper. the windings look the same as what i found in my search. i will search 'testing a stepper motor" . anybody have a...

what about going the other rout and fixing the dings. when i do truck bumpers i end up with deep grinder gouges, rust pits, and the like there and there. i went to napa and got some "icing". its basicaly thin bondo. i know i know bondo is a dirty word. for filling small stuff it works geat...

whaddya think? they dont give you much of a data plate on these things .lol

on the pcam my x and y motors are larger cylendar shape where as the z motor is a square guy. i didnt know if the xy motors have a higher input voltage than the z. i guess it makes since that they all run the same voltage range.

i have a dh2 i was wandering what hassle free computers you guys are using. also i may have a zmotor on the frits. anybody know how to test them. i reciently hooked up a new pc and my z motor went haywire. the computer is used. hooking up my original computer is not an option as she threw a rod so t...

the way i have done it in the past is kind of a pain but you gotta work with what ya got. for the holes in the center i would figure out where your pierce point is going to be. in plasmcam you just start you " cutting" with the autocontrol off. hit pause when needed and put a soapstone mar...

i just upgraded to a 1/2 corded millwak from a 1/2 18v dewalt. no big deal... i got goosbumps looking at those pics.

nice job. i like the boubbled up tip on the pionter. i noticed on the upper bushing that you have dome shape at the top. whats goin on there? did you make that? is that whole bit the bushing you spoke of? when you said bushing i was thinking "bushing insert" where you oversize the hole put...

Thanks for the info. Ill definitely look into that.

Is there a thread about insurance on here? If a customer cuts a finger or pokes an eye out with a piece of my artwork can they take me for all I'm worth? At the shop I worked at before we aren't allowed to weld on any automotive projects. Is that on highway only? If I weld up a trailer hitch am I at...

thanks

the guy put some real gold flakes in the pan but i i didnt get a pic of it after.
