    Default Tormach Y Axis Upgrade kit alternative

    Have the Tormach PN 30580 Bellows Upgrade kit. In their documentation 'Addendum' paragraph, it says

    "Your upgrade kit now includes images and drawings suggesting an alternative mounting. To access these documents, download the files from this link: Page not found – Tormach Inc.. This information comes to us from one of our customers, Jon Byerly of Softronics. It clearly fits into the category of "Things we wish we thought of ourselves". As designed, the bellows upgrade kit requires drilling and tapping holes to fit the form factor of the new improved Y axis bellows. With the machine mounted on the stand it can be difficult to tap and drill these holes. Jon's solution was to design a sub-plate to be used as an adapter. The sub-plate mounts to the machine in the original holes, while the new bellows mount to the sub-plate instead"

    Have tried to download the doc_id=729 on the Tormach site with no success.

    Anybody know where this doc could be?

    The link in the documentation was somehow stripped from the original post. Here it is again.

    The reason it doesn't work is that you add a "." at the end of the link.

    Well, that, and they re-did their website, making old links break ...

    If you mean the Y axis bellows upgrade kit, the documentation is now here:

    Wow - thanks both of you for the replys.

    1. I just added the '.' as the end of a sentence. I did not add it when trying the link.

    2. The download link suggested by both of you - that is the link I am quoting from. Please try it yourself & see if you can get the referred link to work.

    The green Download button has the following link, which works fine for me:

    Hello again. Thanks for your reply.

    I am sorry for the confusion but - I have absolutely no problem downloading the document you describe.

    The problem is inside that document . . . that is where there is a referenced link in the 'Addendum' paragraph that does not lead anywhere. The referenced link is the one I have been describing in past links.

    Can you get that referenced link to work?

    Ah, the quarter falls!
    No, that doesn't work for me either. If you want the additional instructions, I imagine you need to send email to the Tormach customer support people, writing what you wrote above to make sure they're not as slow as me on the uptake :-)
