I was hoping, with a <big grin>, that I had actually missed it since if we had such a critter, I could make that single tooth press-on cam on the GO704, and feed the 3d45 printer with the code to make it. I could make it 10 thou tight in PETG and it would still fit, but 10 thou tight in alu? That's pushing the limits of my ability to calibrate the leaning tower of Pisa that this G0704 is. Which I likely need to do anyway as its been quite a while.. ;-( Better yet, call up HighLand Hdwe in hotlanta and see if they still carry the 1/2" melamine sheet in sq ft pieces. Make that puppy on the 6040! It is very well calibrated for x/y. I just used it to make a couple ER20 wrenches out of 1/2" plate, fit is perfect, first pass. Doesn't have to be that thick though, 1/8" plate would work. And I have that on hand and a mister on the 6040. And a new 18" caliper to calibrate the G0704 that I didn't have then. Now I need some warmer weather. Need to open the garage door and do some house cleaning. Starting with all the stuff I took off the Sheldon while cnc-ing it, taper kit, all the gears, main screw, rack, apron etc. Cheers, Gene Heskett -- "There are four boxes to be used in defense of liberty: soap, ballot, jury, and ammo.
