I repurposed that wobbly wonky ball I had turned into a flag pole cap. Couldn't figure out a way of salvaging it.

Can you dress end mills with that thing?

Cool. What does it attach to? What did that thing go for?

Any interest in doing the group buy in hot rolled instead of cold rolled? For me, having a stash of something is better than having no stash at all.

Is there any place in Calgary that reconditions (sharpens) end mills?

Well that's too bad. I was looking forward to having a stash of materials to draw from at whim. Sure appreciate your efforts though. Would there be any interest in doing the group buy in hot rolled instead?

That banggood website is hard to follow. Looks to me $150cdn for the 3 axis display unit and $50cdn and up for the scales. So probably $300cnd when all is said and done. Sound about right?

Are you in for 3 if the price is right? What's your price point? I found a $215US package. Purchasing 5 or more reduced it to $204US. Free shipping via DHL. Still responsible for Duty. I'm thinking 5 units will draw more attention with the duty inspectors v.s. one. Worth it?

Any feel for what kind of better deal could be obtained? I'm sure there are others on this forum interested in going the DRO route.

Which one did you get? I'm about to ordering one as well. How did you specify scale lengths with the supplier? Via email or was there provision to specify them during the checkout?

Couldn't find it via your link. Is it still listed?

NICE SCORE!!!!! What metal turning bit and bobbles did you get with it? I don't see a chuck in your image.

Not one to give up readily I decided to try turning another 2" aluminum ball. This time I turned a mandrel hoping to get around the excessive hang out dilemma. The threaded stub is 3/8-16 NC. This arrangement gave me no end of grief. So I went back to using a 3/8" bolt and the steady...

So $240 US shipped to CA via DHL?

What did this come to landed? Appears to beat anything I found on Amazon or Ebay.

Nice! The plates turned out well. Look matched. How did you thread the inside of the thread adapter?

Interesting machine! What exactly is "mulling"? How about posting some images of your castings?

Thanks for the heads up. I just checked my helmet, no plastic protective coatings found on the lenses.

I picked up one of these KickingHorse™ F130 IGBT Inverter Flux Core Gasless MIG Welders. $200 + Tax landed. Works ok. All that I have done with it thus far is prove that I have absolutely no natural welding talent what so ever. LOL.
