If it is any consolation it scribed and cut out in under 10 minutes, should be a quick task to check off.


I'm glad the floating head worked out for you. Don't forget I will need to add the time making one of them to the 10 minutes...

No eBay APP ID and/or Cert ID defined in Kunena configurationYeah I did not factor that into the time,

If I could build it again I would not use the $800 ram I brought since you dont need that much down pressure. I would use one of these

connected to a 15mm linear rail with a small floating head attached that would hold the scribe.

It really does not take much pressure at all for the scribe to do its thing.

If you don't tell them in the first place you don't have a problem. :laugh:

Some pics of the table. Excuse the cables drooping everywhere, like I said earlier there is a lot of tidying up to do.

The two drums hold a total of 60 litres and the water is pumped up with air pressure and drains with gravity. As you can see I am pressed for room in the single vehicle garage. Cutting will be done outside so the table will be filled and drained for each session. It takes about 2 minutes to fill and about three to drain.

I have gone against the majority recommendation and directly wired the torch switch to the 7i96, it is only switching 18V and I have faith in PCW's design (plus a few spare inputs). So far so good.
