Have a look at old 'Reeves' designs, Cylinder base castings look a bit like 'Warrior'

Regards Ian.

C'mon guys, your not playing the great computer rip off game properly. When 'Sloth change their O/S, all the software and hardware suppliers have free range to redundify the bits your cash has gone into. Users may complain but eventually capitulate and fall into line. My own U-max scanner was relegated to collect dust when I was dragged kicking and screaming from XP to Doze 7, can't see 11 on the horizon any time soon, that would mean a new Lappy, Cartridge ink scam? converted to CISS long ago.

Industry drives the change for bigger and better, Joe public is just a VERY lucrative spin off.

Regards Ian.

The late Sir John wold have been wearing a black armband for your purchase as opposed to buying a 'Beaver', BUT, having being brought up on a Bridgy, only comment I can give is it's a milling machine, NOT a cleaver. Same comments are forgotten of Lathes.

Regards Ian.

i find it extremely funny trying to machine some thing to the 'Perfect' state when once the machine has been 'In use', limits and fits and tolerance goes out the window and wear takes over. Careful measurement of the spindle nose gives exact diameter and clamping screw pitch/diameters are sloppy anyway.

Regards Ian.

PS. Don't forget to allow for temperature compensation.

And don't forget the power of the pocket. Often, Joe Public wants maximum perceived value for minimum outlay.

Basic mechanics, collets only truly grip the diameter specified UNLESS the 'rubberflex' type. If the bar is bigger in Dia. than the specified bore, if a three split design, you have point of grip in six places - corners of splits. Conversely if the bar is smaller, three flats.

Regards Ian.

I often wonder if the 'Report Phishing' system does? Or just another heading on the task bar. The 'Block' facility ( dots) is totally ineffective as the same olds regularly re-appear.

Can't be a proppa muddle injineer if you don't own a miffod.

Which parts use the CZ 120 that is expensive? Frame plates can be a different material with brass bushes. I have an original Cuckoo clock with the frames from wood and brass bushes.

Anti Vibs are a necessity for mounting equipment in Submarines (Stealthy noise killers) but my workshop doesn't float so I don't need to Rock and Roll or Twist.

Mamod 'Snuff tin' tanks had a fine hole in the brass filler cap. ever had a problem with Meths in those

Regards Ian.

after using the 'Logitech' M570 trackerball for years, I would find having to chase a mouse around the desk a pain. Have had to change the micro switches once but apart from that, it's been in constant use with a combination of Photoshop for clean up and mods to more than 6000 plans and general use.

'Can someone please explain to me why photography is a a diy solution? I used a full frame dslr with prime and TS lenses and I personally think they are very good'

With many 'Photos' of plans, when adjusting contrast and brightness on an electronic manipulating programme, I've found the corners 'drop out', a different brightness, like a fish eye. Gallery type cameras are a different kettle of fish (bad pun).

Regards Ian.

A point adequately addressed by the reference to M6 nuts

Different shear plane.

Regrds Ian.

My 'archives' Have issue No. from to and date from to, forget volume No., not important.

Regards Ian.

Think the O/P is questioning the CSA of the material left after bunging a 6mm thread through it - in cross section the two bits either side. Simple numbers, 10 - 6 = 4 divided by 2 = 2

Our Bridgies had its predecessor, optical readers on the slides. We had a log book with the various calculated scale settings from a designated 'Zero' point to machine whatever. No electronics, pure mechanics, only the bulbs to fail and were easily replaceable.
