My drive is 100% metal, not like the 100% plastic one on the Lincoln. If you set it real loose, once it burns in to the tip, you have to unscrew the tip and feed out the wire and hope you can get it out of the tip. I want to stop the burnback, so running without the autoset is the answer.

Oh, I thought it meant "Hungry":p

I do believe my adapters are threaded in Imperial as the drawbar is. My driving dogs are offset. The adapters look like the one on the right in your picture. Lagun is marketed in North America out of the USA, and as such may have some changes for the non metric crowd. I do like the 40 taper as...

It could be NMT40, I unscrewed the pull stud because my drawbar goes in that hole. The reason I think it is CAT40 is the mill is European, I have one driving ear removed, as it engages with one and the other interferes, because the spindle is a NMT. The Narex is a joy to use

When I bought my boring tool, it came with an R8 shank, and so did my mill. And then I sold the mill and got something more ridgid, and with a CAT40 spindle. I have no idea if any of you use this type of spindle, but I thought it may be useful, so... I initially thought meh, I'll just get...

Yep, Mike same here. I saw that comment in an old forum post and I can't even remember the forum. Anyway, Miller was silly enough to send me a questionnaire about how I liked it. So I told them. And also about the unobtanium plastic hinges that broke on the side cover. Exactly like the Lincoln I...

This is what I have always heard as well, so I was eager to get it. I did notice on old post that some people had figured out how to disable the hotstart feature by pulling off a wire. That whole curcuit board is different in this one.

I recently sold off my Lincoln 180 and bought a new Miller Autoset. I have become totally unimpressed with the Autoset. It starts so hot that it burns back into the tip and then birdnests. I suspect they have incorporated a hotstart feature into it and it reacts too slow to deal with the wire...

Freezers are a great tool, and as long as meat is shrink wrapped so no air gets to it, it is going to keep. I wonder how come people will buy dried beef to gnaw on, and throw out freezer burned (dried) hamburger. My wife says Don't be foolish...
