The Universal Carrier Base

[bergerud]

The Universal Carrier Base is now up in the Pattern Depot. Making it should not be hard. It could easily have been a basic level project. I thought, however, that actually using it might require a little more than basic knowledge of the machine. (I did not want any newbies to think they were making a towel rack!)

Have a look at the project instructions (Try) and see what you think. I plan to update the "how to use instructions" down the road after the discussions I hope we have in this thread.

There are two project files. One for the UCB 24 and one for the UCB 36. You should build the 24 first.

I really think this is a good thing. I hope you do too.

I followed along in the thread you started as you were working on and improving your design. I plan to give it a try when I get a chance. I am glad to see it in the Pattern Depot. You did a great job designing and building this. Hope you see $$$ for all the time you put into creating it.
What are you going to do next?

[bergerud]

Thanks Floyd.

What are you going to do next?

I will work on an Advanced Carrier Base. Side clamping, repeatability, and double sided accuracy. Mostly procedures.

I think this is so popular that you have crashed the CW registration site...keep getting error messages.

You are not the only one. Mikemi sent me a PM saying he was getting 404 after he bought it.

May not be cycled through the database until the morning.

The CW registration server is working for this project now. Just registered mine.

Bergerud,

Thanks for the help. I got mine activated this morning. Now it is off to Lowe's to buy the materials.

Bergerud,

Thanks for your creative project! I hope to build mine this week and begin putting it to good use.
