Stock Advance

[Guest]

Is any body using the stock advance in lathe? If so can I have a look at your post? I am interested in finding a sample of the "pstck_bar_fd" post block and the post blocks it calls. I need to modify a post for a customer and the Post CD gives no examples of how it should be laid out.

Also, how do you use this feature and does it work well for you?

 

I am not looking for a free post. I want to see a sample of these pblocks. So no flames please.

Harryman gets out the rubber stamp he uses for everything.

I haven't chased this feature down through MC yet. Not trying to be a wise A, just a huge fan of macros.

LoL, Mark!

 

I think even if you DID ask for one you'd get one, you've pulled more than your own weight here..

Thanks for the sample post. Did you do the modifications?

[Tom Vanderbilt]

Your welcome. Nope....I've hacked around on it quite a bit, but the bar stock feed pretty much came to us that way.
