Chuck Reamer is on a distinguished road

I recived a tormach last week at work, and im sort of impressed with it.

I am having problems with my spindle starting sometimes, I have contacted tormach and they instructed me on what to do to find out what the problem is. I am just to busy making money with it right now to stop and diddle around with it, maby next week ill get to it. I have also noticed that if you feed into a part a little to aggresivly the motors will miss steps and plung to far into the part, its not a pretty sight.

I also added a machine light and coolant shield for the monitor, I would recomend it to anyone.

I have been doing some deep hole drilling in Aluminum and it worked fine, buty mostly I have been doing 3-d pockets in mild steel. It works better than I thought it would for this, and I am used to real CNC equipment. I am working with some P-20 as soon as im done these jobs so we will see how that goes. I ran for over 8 hours straight the other day and didnt have any problems.

The control software is VERY easy to use, for the price I would recomend it for the proper application. Ours will be paid for in less than a month and then its just gravy after that.
