I don't think so. Because the relief on the tool shank is typically based on superimposing the maximum parting OD of circular stock. So if max stock diameter for parting was 1" the circular relief would be something like orange circle - offset a bit more. But cutting into wall thickness of a...

I think he means these typically have a circular recess in the shank sized for maximum stock diameter

I was looking into hardening properties of 1144SP once upon a time for miniature camshaft & came to the conclusion there are better options, at least for that kind of application. SP means it will distort less post-machining due to how its mechanically processed during manufacture. That's why...

@phaxtris Sorry I'm going to end the conversation here. I've provided several CAR/TC/AIM links & excerpts from the Regs. Its dry reading but should be sufficiently clear to you or anyone else. I've asked a few times now, but you have not provided any excerpts from applicable TC regulations...

If you can provide me something from CAR or any related Regs that support this Crown land issue, I'd appreciate it. To the best of my understanding, this is an Airspace issue, not a land permission/consent issue. Again, I am specifically talking RPAS here which is >250g. Sub-250 is slightly less...

Yes. I did my earnest best to help you maximize return on hobby investment by avoiding this particular money pit. Very sad what RC has turned into as of late, but it is what it is.

Uhhm... You are pooched.

Its all here in 2024 guide & if you did RPAS Basic it should be familiar territory https://tc.canada.ca/sites/default/files/2024-03/aim-2024-1_rpa-e.pdf Some initial clarifications. If your drone is sub 250g, that is called a micro RPA. They have different (generally less onerous) restrictions...

Late to the conversation & way too much to type here. I'm a long time RC guy & front & center on this issue. Feel free to PM me & we can chat by phone if you like. The big picture is: - Dec-22/Jan-23 the RC world kind of hit the wall when TC revoked the prior longstanding MAAC exemption...

Aha! Awesome.

I seem to recall a while back someone was trying to sell or share some portion of way oil that wasn't getting consumed fast enough. I cant seem to find the post, so maybe it was a conversation? Anyways, I have a buddy in Calgary looking for some. I think KBC is still one of the few that sell in...

Sorry to read about the oops. This was my week of helmet fires too. I just bought some bronze from a different supplier for my next engine. They carry different flavors than what I was using in the past. Mostly I've used 932 (aka SAE 660). This time I'm trying 936 which, from what I can tell...

This is just my hunch. I think on involute gears in general you want to maintain the pitch diameter to its theoretical size. If you mean account for paint finish or something I think the offset would be on the tooth itself, no? The inter-tooth fit is more a function of how close the physical...

re your first question, I think its a generic response. If you just click one post it will quote one only. If you click 2+ posts it will paste those accordingly. I actually didn't know that was a feature till just now

If you want to purge your draft I think just click the Delete option under Save icon. Possibly you still have to trash any embedded attachments separately with the icon or delete key.
