VPI Posted April 13, 2023 Report Share Posted April 13, 2023 (edited) I guess I am going to give up on the $280 worth of CNC cut maple jaws from Andrew Klein, as he seems to be ignoring e-mails entirely now, and make my own. Paid for them a month ago and nothing yet as he forgot to send them with the vices. Edited April 13, 2023 by VPI 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Edit: Just watched his latest video, looks like he stole your money for another 3D Printer. Edited April 14, 2023 by naamanf Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Craig Sawyers Posted April 14, 2023 Report Share Posted April 14, 2023 Were the jaws on a separate order to the vice? If it was on a credit card, you can just cancel the order and get the money back from your credit card company. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Emooze Posted April 15, 2023 Report Share Posted April 15, 2023 Looks intense. I spent my day getting signed off on the local makerspace's ping-pong table. Well used but still runs very well. Plus has a real nice 3-phase spindle. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VPI Posted April 15, 2023 Report Share Posted April 15, 2023 Did not even realize a three phase spindle was a thing. Maybe I should look for one of those maker spaces so I can throw my shitty CNC away and put something worthwhile there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

swt61 Posted April 15, 2023 Author Report Share Posted April 15, 2023 Jeff, you may not have been born a nerd, but you have certainly gained that status through osmosis. It's a hard thing to come to grips with. I learned this about myself at my first Head-Fi meet in Austin. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VFDs can also be used instead of a phase converter to power three phase motors. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VPI Posted April 23, 2023 Report Share Posted April 23, 2023 Got the last set of maple vice jaws from In-Kleind and the mounting points and through holes are almost a full 1/4” off center so that required dramatic work to salvage and keep the length. Now that I have the maple vice jaws on, I think i am going to build more Jatoba jaws as the Maple bores me. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
