- Tables Y-leadscrew is straight. Movement is due to very worn drive nut. Do I have any 20mm bearings to support with anyway? 00:07:37, 2010-08-15
- Closest seem to be 22 and 19mm. Bother. 00:13:28, 2010-08-15
- After repeated testing, these screws are definitely imperial not metric. Grr. 00:31:55, 2010-08-15
- Bed time. 00:32:46, 2010-08-15
- Last minute check; Z-axis is metric. 10 turns equals 20mm travel. Guh. 00:48:11, 2010-08-15
- @ulfrfenris I can't, unless it involves wood and metal. But will poke a friend who was interested. in reply to ulfrfenris 13:22:02, 2010-08-15
- Woken at 8:30am by men with chainsaws. Fortunately just pruning the trees encroaching on the railway. No trim of the alleyway one yet tho. 13:25:44, 2010-08-15
- Have loaded the bus and been to the tip tho. Mail checks, then back to the shed for tinkering. 13:26:12, 2010-08-15
- @Blue_moon_lady It's going okay. Will be going better if I get some things done in the workshop too! Yours? in reply to Blue_moon_lady 13:35:01, 2010-08-15
- @Blue_moon_lady In short; it needs some work. in reply to Blue_moon_lady 13:44:13, 2010-08-15
- @Blue_moon_lady Yeah, pretty much. in reply to Blue_moon_lady 14:51:25, 2010-08-15
- Taking some influence from bench drill design. I'll need a splined quill though. A cheap bench drill would provide, and matched pulleys. 14:52:43, 2010-08-15
- Hmm, or some gearbox parts (motorbike?) if they've got a nice long spline. Time to hit the breakers yard? 15:21:29, 2010-08-15
- The "CR125" mainshaft looks to have a nice long spline with only one short (circlip) break. 15:30:22, 2010-08-15
- This set of eye-moulds have fused to the glass masters. Moulds & likely masters ruined. So so tired. 22:16:55, 2010-08-15
- There is no end. There is always more work. There is no rest. There is no reward. 22:17:46, 2010-08-15
- Can't think straight. In no condition for doing casting. Would like a bath, but not enough time now. Shower and bed. Survey in morning. 22:24:44, 2010-08-15
- Anyone want to stay with me for a week as assistant & keep me steady enough to finish my current work? Cracking up here. 23:36:43, 2010-08-15
