Perhaps these would work for engraving since runout would be somewhat

so and there is no obvious way that the threads would achieve that level of
concentricity. I find that it is hard to get low TIR even using precision ER
Weldon shank is round with a flat on the side. A setscrew prevents pullout.

The end (away from the threaded end) of the R8 holder is flat rather than
slightly convex. This is required to allow the flange of the TTS holder to
touch the spindle nose.

Have you considered trying single flute endmills? With single flute you
could run at twice the RPM of 2 flute and the same chip loads and axis
speeds. That might solve the problem of insufficient power for high speed
movement and insufficient low speed spindle torque.

As a Tormach owner for a number of years:
My machine came with Mach3 installed. Perhaps 3 years ago all owners were
emailed an upgrade notice suggesting that PathPilot was great and that an
upgrade required the purchase of a Mesa 5i25 card + an install DVD costing a
total of a little more than $100
I neglected to answer you other question:
Tormach's Python source files are on every distribution flashdrive (the
distribution is too big for a DVD). For a small fee ($25?) Tormach will send
all source files on a DVD.

I have some Reliance/ElectroCraft 1326AB-B410 servo motors (see
support.elmark.com.pl/rockwell/Literatura/1326a-2_9.pdf for a data sheet).
Are there any affordable drivers available for these motors?

Aren't these often auto-transformers which provide no isolation between
input and output?

I have placed one order with them without a problem; the supplied motor was
exactly as advertised. Unfortunately it was not what I needed! Note to self:

On the Tormach mailing list there was a report of the same error caused by
having a M09 and M30 on the same line. Is it possible that this is a related
problem?

The site says " Minimum order quantity: 280 ". I don't have that many mills!

I haven't closely followed this thread but what is wrong with the
traditional method of sweeping a DTI attached to the end of an L-shaped rod
secured in the spindle? Simple, time tested and very accurate.

Did you put quotation marks around the "24 volt"? If it is entered as just
words with no quotes you also get everything with "24" in the description.
That includes "24 watt", "240 volt", etc. I just did it ebay.ca with the
quotes and got 25 hits all of which are appropriate.

An interesting question but I prefer to keep collets in a logical size
arrangement rather than trying to achieve the closest possible packing.

I assume that you mean a Surgistor(TM). You'll find them for very high
prices on eBay (the one currently listed is $25!). Google shows several
places that claim to have them.

"Thermistor" is the generic name for a device that changes resistance with
temperature. I believe that they are available as both NTC and PTC
(negative/positive temperature coefficient) devices. As noted in my earlier
email with the TM symbol a "Surgistor" is a name trademarked by Stetron that
