  • Several Regions have held meetups already, but others are being planned or are evaluating the interest. The Calgary Area Meetup is set for Saturday July 12th at 10am. The signup thread is here! Arbutus has also explored interest in a Fraser Valley meetup but it seems members either missed his thread or had other plans. Let him know if you are interested in a meetup later in the year by posting here! Slowpoke is trying to pull together an Ottawa area meetup later this summer. No date has been selected yet, so let him know if you are interested here! We are not aware of any other meetups being planned this year. If you are interested in doing something in your area, let everyone know and make it happen! Meetups are a great way to make new machining friends and get hands on help in your area. Don’t be shy, sign up and come, or plan your own meetup!

    de-magnetize digital calipers

    I just spun it for a few seconds and gradually pulled it away while letting it spin. I don't think you need fancy magnets or lots of them. I should test it further. It was pretty much instantaneous just with the 4 basic magnets and very effective. I suspect for demagnetizing screw drivers and...

    de-magnetize digital calipers

    I printed it out and glued in some basic PA 18mm x 4mm magnets. Voila - it works. I demagnetized the below screw driver with it in an instant. The screwdriver could pick up the little 3mm ID bearing before as shown on the shaft and after demag it appeared to be completely non-magnetic.

    testing embedded links

    Making an electric motor adapter for Nema 56C to a B5 D71 Flange

    Well if it is to be drilled on my mill the simplest solution is the all the bolt hole positions in X and Y coordinates from an origin, the centre is probably best.

    If I right click and open in new tab I get a little bit of the top of the picture. See attached. @Susquatch if you did the reload of thumb nails I would appreciate it.

    Making an electric motor adapter for Nema 56C to a B5 D71 Flange

    Making an electric motor adapter for Nema 56C to a B5 D71 Flange

    @calgaryguy hey Chris I could CAD up a drawing for you and we could potentially drill those bolt holes on my mill. If you wanted to draw the part with dimensions on paper and post pictures I expect it would be quick. And then I could see the machine work?
