Re: turning Z access in to lever action plunge

yea so pneumatics may be the way to go. I still need to see if I can cut out the opening of a plunge router too? Kind Regards, Timothy J. Ziegler Ziegler WoodWork & Specialty 14171 160th Ave. Foreston MN 56330 320-294-5798 shop 320-630-2243 cell On Sun, Dec 20, 2020 at 8:47 PM 'Curt George'

Re: turning Z access in to lever action plunge

Tim as I have told you in the past, I can get pistons and other pneumatic equipment, pretty cheap. This is old school stuff, most people do not want to touch/use them any more, thus, parts sells for very little. (depending...) ;-) C.A.G. On Sunday, December 20, 2020, 09:40:31 PM EST, Tim

Re: turning Z access in to lever action plunge

Yea we were toying with that idea too. I may look into this but will need to find a pretty decent one with some good pressure etc... We'd thought servo motors too but$$$ Kind Regards, Timothy J. Ziegler Ziegler WoodWork & Specialty 14171 160th Ave. Foreston MN

Re: turning Z access in to lever action plunge

I would think that an air cylinder could give you the push and a spring and air release the return. On 12/20/2020 6:57 PM, 'Curt George' via Legacy Ornamental Mills wrote: Hey Tim Could you mount a plunge router in the Z axis tray? this way you could have the best of both worlds. Plunge

Re: turning Z access in to lever action plunge

Hey Tim Could you mount a plunge router in the Z axis tray? this way you could have the best of both worlds. Plunge depth with the Z axis and rapid release of the router/ spring action. Just an idea. C.A.G. On Sunday, December 20, 2020, 12:38:42 PM EST, timjz...@gmail.com wrote: Ok

RE: Mill work and Ideas.

Same here green wood is fun to work especially to turn like apple but that’s where it ends, having been in the business for over 60 years I always have a stash of air dried boards, turning stock and lumber on hand (yea my wife is always reminding me) even then you have to allow for movement and

Ok new topic here to add to the day. As you all know what happens when you reach the place your router stops when turning, fluting etc it usually burns So.. get in route and get out no burn. I have been working on an idea in my mind to convert my Z access with the Non Plunge router PC

Hey Curtis thanks for all the useful information. Good stuff! I'm not big about green wood but now you for sure have my interest. Are you taking any precautions to prevent rust on your equipment and tools or really don't have problems with it? Kind Regards, Timothy J. Ziegler Ziegler WoodWork &

Re: Mill work and Ideas.

Most of those were made yesterday, The wood bowls, NO. but most of the little things on the table were. As far as preserving the wood, I just seal them with shellac, or wax. and leave them be...  If the turning is worth the effort, I like to use water displacement when possible.  As a General

Barn find Revo

I have a good friend who wants a REVO I know where there is one, in an old barn, but in a very sad state. It is very rusty and has been for a long while. It has a rotary table laying on the floor along with other Revo stuff. It also has a plate holder on the front with a few cutters in it
