Hello from Geelong
 

Hi Besser,

How is it going. If you havent obtained ER collets yet, I get them shipped in from Hong Long, great supplier and cheap quality product.

Statrt on 2 MMs yesterday, construction taking place in Mates fctory in Bayswater.

regards

Graeme

Been to long between drinks! well had my head down in the business. Well started again on the MM. My Two head aches:
1: Deviating from design (there is a reason)
2: Working with thicker frame material (it weighs so much)

Well the intention is to have the MM multi purpose and I have organised a custom 100mm deep waterbath for the table. This will facilitate the plasma cutter but also necessitates a solid frame. I now have to move the table around with the forklift! grrr

As the working area is 12'x6' (please dont call it 3600x1800 to many MDF experts have already tried that one out on me) with the gantry bridging the 12', every thing is BIG.

I'm looking forward to getting this finished!

wow! I'd love to see some photos of that beast

How is the project going?
 

Quick heelo to see how you are getting on with the MM

Graeme
