Thanks everyone, I appreciate the positive comments.
At your convenience can you take some close shoots at the whole assembly servo - belt - pinion - rack ? |
Just above the pictures, in my initial post, you'll find a link to my gallery. There are several closeup shots of the drive system in there.
Your tank is huge, why so deep? |
The tank is only half full of water, the rest is air inside the inner air tank. With this arangement I can release the air pressure and drop the water level below the bottom of my slat holders. In doing so, I can get parts out of the tank without having to dig around in a tank full of water.
The additive that you added to the tank, was it in the form of an orange powder that turn it that color and what did it cost you? I think I know what it is and may have an alternative source. |
Plasma Quench comes in liquid form. I purchased a 5 gallon jug of concentrate for about $60. This is enough to treat 160 gallons of water. According to the MSDS sheets, Plasma Quench's active component is Sodium Nitrite. It's the same stuff that's used to preserve packaged meats. Yum!!!!
Is that an Xbox conroller or something...? |
Yep......play a video game, cut some parts, play a video game, cut some parts.........sorry couldn't resist
. Actually it's a Logitech USB game controller. I use it to jog and re-zero my axis' before running a part. It comes in very handy when I'm cutting on the side of the machine that's away from the keyboard.
I tried searching for the pdf from thermaldynamics on the water table, but had no luck. Do you still have the link to that? |
It appears that the original link is dead. I do have a copy of the file, unfortunately it's larger than 500k and is too large to post. PM me an email address and I'll send you a copy.
