Thanks everyone. Busy but enjoyable day at work followed by dinner with a friend, not a bad way to spend one's birthday, especially since I will get to spend time with a number of my favorite people over then next 10 days.
For the parts hoarding crowd that likes to pretend they will build stuff eventually, is there a spec for this transformer on file with the company and available for order? Especially since 48x 4686A just arrived and the sumr keep having issues?
I am booked at the Kingsgate Marriott for 2/21-2/23. I will be coming in from Columbus late that Friday and heading back some time Sunday. If anyone needs a place to crash, I have the option of getting double beds.
Tried seasoning mine yesterday, using coconut oil. Didn't go that well, I will probably get some flax seed oil or Crisco or something and try again next Friday.
Proxxon on the way, looks like what I was looking for. Nate, as much as I would love a desktop CNC, I don't think I can quite justify it. With that said, I did look, and it seems like there are options out there under $1000...
Just smoked my second (mid level) dremel tonight, looking for something better for doing stuff like drop through transformer and IEC plug cutouts. Anyone try the rotozip rotosaw+ or dremel 4200? Would be great if it didn't get burning hot in my hands too.
