    Thank you very much Michael. Praise coming from such a creative guy as you is high praise indeed. I can truthfully say that I wouldn't have been able to accomplish it without Dan's input and...

    I had trouble with the board sensor stalling when I used 1/2" wide Corian strips. The 1/4" wide strips should pass muster. Make sure the outside edge of the middle piece is flush so the bit can...

    I took my results of yesterday and stripped them down to the bare essentials.

    What is left is five very small pieces that all can be taped to the LHR jig with blue tape, making easy removal for...

    MAN! you are Johnny-on-the-spot. I posted my message and then suddenly realized what you actually said was right and I had misunderstood. But before I got a chance to post an EDIT, you already...

    Nope. You ain't got the picture. The part of the z-truck that contacts the cylinder is the part that ONLY moves laterally. It's the part that the bearings are screwed into. Now that I say that I...
  9. Carving Rotary Lithopanes in 4” Inside Diameter PVC pipe (4 ½” Outside Diameter)

    The short version: You physically can’t do it.

    NEW IMPORTANT EDIT 10/16/15: The short version: You CAN do it but you have to modify the LHR jig and fool the software. See entry #14 for detail...
