You could do some more searching on the interweb, but my hunch is it is one of the earlier/better clone attempts of Deckel SO. I would suspect Taiwan, but not 100%. They went for bigger bucks but probably still half the cost of a Deckel...

It may not have been under your control, but I have heard more than a few stories about problems when the items are declared as 'samples'. There are specific definitions on both sides of the border & if it 's interpreted to not meet ALL of the criteria so a monkey could make that determination...

I don't actually understand the eBay GSP program. Or maybe it varies by type/weight. One item from USA arrived with USPS tracking inside USA & then handover to CP within Canada. Dinger fees were remitted at local post office when I picked up. Another one came from Europe, also GSP. Landed on my...

My opinion. It could be that new duty rates are being layered into eBay purchases that were otherwise 0% due to the recent spat. Taxes are always applicable regardless. I'm quite certain duty has been applicable on eBay for some time, or at least had the potential to be. Even used items can...

In low rpm mode (lower picture) = no noise foreword or reverse. Dogs are disengaged. But both belts are still engaged & a new gear 83 becomes engaged In high rpm mode (top picture) = noise in forward, but not in reverse. Dogs are engaged regardless of motor direction. Gear 83 is disengaged. One...

I do have an optical RPM sensor gun style. Haven't used in a while but I think it just needs a contrast stripe of some sort. In a very crude way (I think) LEDs on flashlights must somehow flash on/off at some high frequency because by varying the RPMS up to a level I can make the belt 'stand...

Some good thoughts. Executing them is not exactly easy although after the service visit I have a much better understanding of what's involved by helping the millwright/service tech. Lifting & unhooking the motor off the belt/sheave is a bit of an aerial maneuver & a 2-man job to do it safely...

Turns out I've had a GrabCad account for some time, I should use it more. I do see it has a a 3DP sub-category which is good. But wouldn't some of the other dedicated 3DP sites have a whole lot more? Or do they have other restrictions or costs or other disadvantages? (I've only had a quick look...

That's a very good point. Still no search hits on Ali. For what I need the usual N-Am suppliers have worked ok, But like many things prices going nutty. https://www.astmsteel.com/product/astm-o1-tool-steel/

Noted. Also add to list - Travers & KBC. Both sell rod form & rectangular stock. In rod form, metric was available up to certain sizes. But I don't think as much, if any metric square/rectangular bars but it's been a while since I looked. Usually for me doesn't matter as it is being machined to...
