  1. This is off topic but I thought you guys might have some advice. We're in the process of making a mold to mold a 3 inch by 4 inch by 1/8 thick polypropylene part. We usually don't use this material so I was wondering if anyone is familiar with it's shrinkage or warpage during molding. Any other tips or advice would also be helpful. Thank You!
  2. The airline industry is in real bad shape this may be the chief reason for the pay cut.
  3. We currently have a Tree Master Journeyman 425 vertical mill. This has been a great machine. As far as service goes we just had ours serviced by Ellison Machine in Milwaukee. The service tech. was very knowledgable. Replacement parts are available but it could take awhile to get them.
  4. James', Thanks alot your solution did the trick.
  5. When I try to save a file the thumbnail image screen comes up. I would like to get rid of this but I can't seem to. I have this setting turned off in the screen config. page but it still comes up. How can I get rid of this.

    Greg, Thanks for your help. The problem turned out to be in our connection to the server. We changed servers last week and we've had a few problems since. My e-mail also had to be reset-up. Thanks again

    We use windows xp pro and our post are fine and have worked in the past. Our video card is fine too. This problem didn't arise until we got a new server for our network.

  12. we finally figured this out. our geometry was bad. please excuse us we're a little new to solids and surfaces. thanks anyway.
  13. the program from perfecseal mankato works great when we run it on a Benchman using a mplightm post but when we try it on a tree using a dynapath post it gouges just like it always did. the programs were posted on different computers. any help would be great.
  14. perfecseal mankato, thanks for your help your program seems to work very well
  15. i forgot to mention the file name the file is called "HOOK". we're using MC9. thanks for any help
  16. can anyone tell me a good way to mill this surface on a hook ( geometry is on the ftp site). we are using a 1/32 ball endmill. it cuts most of the surface pretty well but it gouges the back side of it. we'd be greatful for any help.
  17. As a toolmaker who does his own programing and runs the cnc's himself I can understand how some cnc operators get offended. I also feel that some toolmakers can be arrogent but as long as molds and dies need tweeking, repairs, or trouble shooting there will be a need for toolmakers. So to say our days are numbered is just as arrogent as toolmakers referring to cnc operators as "button pushers".
