Synthetic coolants eat off the machines paint. Are water grinder runs Castrol and after 5 years it looks like 25 years old. The theory with some of the Toolmakers is "let them rust then maybe well get new equipment once a decade"

I should have been a Union plumber... Its true the guy said my Brand new Hot water valve was inferior and replaced it and the stuck cold Valve.... This was an expensive "I told you so" lesson to my wife. I replaced the Hot I could probally do the Cold! But take a look at the "union plumber action" Going on. I will be calling that contractor tommorow! "Turn the water off and un screw and screw on two valves at $299.00 out the door"!!!!!!!!! [ 10-07-2003, 10:43 PM: Message edited by: Tony ]

I brought my daughters out shed hunting when they were between 5 and 10 they liked it. We were "Treasure hunting" Dress it up all I wanted... They brought there Barbie dolls with and wanted me to carry them most of the way. My son is now 6 and he loves the whole idea He fits into the camo sweatshirt and pants and gloves that his sisters never really wanted any thing to do with. He has a 10 lb bow and we shoot arrows together. He also comes with me to scout,hang a stand or refuel a dripper,thats plenty for now [ 10-02-2003, 11:19 PM: Message edited by: Tony ]

Roger "CNC 5/12/94 - Initial post setup for Mill5" She is getting up there isnt she... I have no idea where to start. well Backing up the post is a good start. I will manually edit my code. then make sure the controller takes it. And then send it to my reseller and say I need this to come out of my post when I Transform. Tony

Hello I have a Max controller with the ISNC option(Fanuc emulation) on a Hurco mini mill we didnt spring for the sub option on this one. I am trying to run two vices on this "workHorse" In transform toolpath I set it so it increments to one starting with zero. The second operation shows up But when I post its only a g54 there isnt an offset toolpath call mi1 - Work coordinate system 4 thru 9 = The WCS of G54 thru G59 respectively at each tool. pwcs # G54+ coordinate setting if mi1 >= 4, *sgwcs How do I tell my post to If , then? Thanks in advance! Tony

I saw that download, Here I am trying to find the reverse of it Being that I spend 80% of my time in MC. Does anyone have the addy to the SW furom? Cad portal something? I have to have my web sites approved by The "Warden" so I cannot even search for it myself.

Tool I do have a seat of SW on my box. I was just trying to save a couple of steps. I thought there was a "SW viewer" chook out there or something?

Is it possible to see the File preview of a Solid works file while converting it in MC? This would end a lot of frustration with the endless config's of the same file in SW. Currently I locate the file I need in SW then bring it in through MC Thanks Tony
