My arm doesn't really move fast enough to actually throw a holder. It's easy to adjust the arm rate so I can imagine some owners turn it up, or don't bother fixing it when it's too fast. My most common mistake is not having the workpiece parked far enough to the right and the tool holder hits as the arm flips the holder over. -- Kirk Wallace http://www.wallacecompany.com/machine_shop/ http://www.wallacecompany.com/E45/index.html California, USA ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Everyone hates slow websites.
