    long time between updates

    so in the shop I've been busy like a canadian beaver on CNC projects. Last summer I purchased a 50w CO2 laser from a company in Toronto off of ebay. Not the greatest laser in the world, but it works. One thing I wanted todo with it were mugs etc so I had to build a rotary axis. The design I...

    New compressor

    Well, I broke down and purchased a new to me 80 gal compressor. When I found the ad on facebook, it was described as having a 3-phase motor. No problem, pull the motor off the old 60 gal compressor and I'm good to go. When I arrived to pick it up, I'm looking at the cord before he plugged it...

    HyperTherm plasma

    I won a couple of hypertherm plasma cutter power supplies in an auction recently. A powermax 900 and 800. Neither comes with a torch. The price of the torch is scary as hell so I'll need to find a used one. Another option is the 1torch from Thermal Dynamics actually has an adapter kit for the...

    sucking in SK

    So I purchased my argon tank. A little 55 size and I've gone through a couple of tanks now. Thought maybe I should consider upgrading the tank to one twice the size like the CO2 tank I have. It seems that the major welding gas suppliers do NOT sell any tanks larger than what I currently own...

    CNC Plasma Table

    I'm about to embark on a new CNC project.. I have my electronics (ethernet smoothstepper, Gecko G540, CNC4PC breakout board for the smoothstepper and 270oz/in nema23 motors). Ordered some rails from China. These are heavy rail as I'm used to the mgn12 rails used in my 3d printers. Price was...

    New Welder

    Well I blame This Old Tony for making me purchase a TIG welder. After looking around, I wanted a TIG/stick/plasma since I already have a MIG welder. Eventually I found this Everlast PowerPro 256Si for a fair price on Amazon.ca shipping from Canada prime. Unfortunately they were out of stock. I...

    New Printer CB20

    Friend of mine bought a Tevo Tornado after selling his flsun cube to me. Since then, Ive given up on my delta and have started to build a new printer. It's a CB20 which is basically a cr10 with dual Z and a 500x500x500 print volume. Right now just waiting on a few parts from across the ocean...

    metal supermarket

    Does Metals SuperMarket only use UPS for shipping. I was going to place an order for some 1045 round bar which was going to cost me 75 plus 20 in tax and finally 95 in shipping for 14lbs of metal. Now I know everyone wants to make money but this is slightly too much. Edmonton to Saskatoon is not...
