mamba kit
 

If two more people commit for Parts and Bearing, we have an order!!

Include shipping addresses.

I'm a happy camper
 

I received my parts from Joe and they are excellent. Drawing numbers are engraved on each part. Bends are excellent. Much thanks to Joe for the quick turnaround - at an excellent price!

Thanks,
david

Joe, it sounds like you are doing an excellent job. Thanks!

Joe or Gerald,
Why the extra motor plate?

I supposed it was for a second y-motor?

If that is the case, I must point out that I ignored a second y-motor when doing the cable chain position for the gantry. You might have to lengthen the chain a bit and/or re-position the brackets.

Also realise that the "Full Options" will only work with the geared OM motors.

Gerald,
Is there any advantage to having 2 Y motors? I can see it on the X but dont know if the extra one on the Y would improve anything. :confused:

See thread http://www.mechmate.com/forums/showthread.php?p=2915

Extra Y-Plate
 

I figured for those people that wanted to put an extra motor on there machine, they wouldn't' have to call me to get an extra plate.
Didn't mean to confuse things.

Hi Joe,
How is the order doing? do you have a date for the shipping? Im exited to see the first parts of my mamba project :)
Kindest Regards,
Hector

just wondering if your parts could be shipped to ireland

Joe,

I am also interested in the mamba set and bearings .
If you can send them to Belgium.

I think that shipping would kill your budget. I checked on sending a set to Australia, and Shipping was $700.00.
I really don't think the box will hold up that far.

Bart & Liam, try Kim in Denmark:

700$ is indeed far too much.
I have here in Belgium a few contests, and the price fluctuates between the 600 and 750 euros for the mamba set .I will continue the search for a good price .
Do you have any idea whether the shipping to Belgium for the 4 Gecko's and the 4 steppers also to that extent?
The best price for a Gecko Vampire Drive 203 is 175 euro in Belgium .

Bart

I can deliver mamba sets in vaious countries in Europe...

Unbent sets will cost 175 Euro

Bent sets will cost 225 Euro

Remember to add a note on which motorplates you wish to use, either for geared motors or for direct driven motors..

Railskates can also be made, cost 25 Euro xtra.

All prices are plus shipping and handling...

Shipping varies from 100 to 125 Euro...

That's great,
In the near future I will place an order.
I must still figure out what motor i will use.

Thank You
Greetings Bart

Bart:

You know where I am when the time comes... :D

And so another project Begins
 

Thanks Gerald for the help just put an order in for the laser cut parts was saying to kim that as i am a fitter/turner by trade i know the time saved by my purchase and can afford now to put that time into the finer details of the machine. A friend put me on to your site and already my wife reckons the laptop has never had such usage, never sees it out of my hands when home from work, brain is going into overload with all the info.I am sure i may be asking a few questions but forgive me in advance


Thanks again



Liam:D

Mamba Parts
 

Finally, after about a month of waiting for the second batch of Mamba Parts, the parts are done!!! For those who have paid me, they will be shipped on Friday 9th.

Hi Joe...

Thanks...

How much did carraige cost to Ireland.
Eoghan

postage to ireland was 120 euro which i find reasonably considering cost and time spent hand machining is realy a no brainer they would be more acurate and better fits (hopefully) only joking kim:)

Mamba Laser Cut Parts
 

O.K. Things are slowing down and It is looking like a good time to place another order!!

There are two guys that are committed and wanting a set of parts.:):)
There are about ten or so people riding the MM fence.:rolleyes:
They need at least four or more people to commit to buy parts before I place another order.

A set of Mamba parts and 8 bearings for the skate is $397.00 Plus whatever shipping is to your location. The price might change due to timing of order and increases in our economy.

If "You" are ready to order your "Mamba" set, Email me your address and zip code to: [email protected]

Joe

Thanks for all the help Joe!

I ordered some more sets for myself this week, and tweaked two plates slightly. Only one of the 2 affects the inch folk - added a lip to 1030422 for attaching a switchbox. Zipped drawings are in the downloads section.

Gerald, "Thank You" for keeping the MM Dream alive!!

And thanks for the update on the update.
Only two more people needed to place an order!! :D
Trust me, you don't want to be the one on a waiting list all summer long. :eek:

Joe

Joe, there is also a move afoot to increase the hole size in the grinder skate so that other brands of angle grinders can more easily be fitted.

Also extending the lower x-axis cable chain brackets would be very helpful:

One could debate that if you purchase a cable chain with a tight enough radius, this isn't an issue but there isn't any "loss" to making the top of the brackets longer, it only pushes the mounting point up on the beam:

Hi Joe,
My first post on this forum...

If you don't already have a full parts order go ahead and put me down
for one more complete kit (for a total of 2 units).

Maybe if there's one slot left someone else who's on the fence might jump!

Again, thanks for putting the order together! And thanks to Gerald and the rest for getting me into this boodoggle.

Cheers!

It's only a boondoggle if you don't use it to make money.... I guess you could call that a hobby... :)

Washington? Yay!
 

Hey, another Jeff, and one on the left coast, to boot!

I'm going to build one of these too, but I'm going to be a few months behind you, I suspect.

Keep us posted on your progress, it's good that another is being built in my (relative) neighborhood.

Ha! Thanks Jeff, Nice to meet you!

Yeah I've been a lurker for a long time and started collect the bits
and pieces. When I saw this post from Joe about getting all of the pieces
cut and delivered I decided it was time to jump.

The other thing that was holding me back was how to cut the rails but after
I saw DMoore's youtube video on the steelmax saw I was sold (Thanks David!)

I'll be starting this thing seriously in a few weeks so I'll keep you posted.
Let me know how your build goes as well!

Thanks for all the info and encouragement.

-Jeff

To add to the confusion - Another Jeff is here getting ready to build - I'm waiting on a quote here locally from my laser cutter, depending on what they come up with I would like to get in the parts order. I'm in Greensboro, NC (27410). Can't wait to get started.

Joe, here is a very fresh set of drawings. I think you are 99.999% safe to order from this set.

Dang, I spoke too soon:

Serious warning for laser cutters and benders: Part 1060215 has been revised with longer legs in the cutting (P) drawing. This drawing also shows the engraving of the bend positions. However, the bending version (B) of that drawing does not show the longer legs yet. Bending as per the older B drawing will be incorrect. Bending must be done on the laser engrave, 100mm from the tips, as per drawing below:

Gerald,
I got my sets cut from the original mamba set from Nov. Will I have a problem?

November 07 was fine. It is the quick drawing patch I did 2 weeks ago that has the bug, that bug being on the bending only, not the cutting. If the supplier's read the drawings carefully, matching rev notes and dates, they could spot the oversight on my part. My supplier got it right for 5 sets - then he messed up one set delivered today (a week later).

He made another booboo: I recently supplied a bending drawing for 1030422B in .dxf format, from which I purposely deleted all the small holes so that there there would be no conflict with 1030422P which was to be used for cutting. Well, he saw two .dxf's for the same part, and laser cut from the bending drawing, leaving out all the small holes! Another solid argument for supplying minimal .dxf drawings.

I have more or less resolved to spend this weekend tidying up these little loose ends - but the house maintenance all needs to be done if the weather clears. . . .

well i am back in the forum finally getting some time to start my MM ill like to know how much is the laser cut set please and how long will it take the order i am in miami florida

thanks

manny

Bienvenido manny y suerte con la mech.
