Dave J 15th May 2011, 06:06 PM I too was wondering about pictures but never asked. Nice machine, does it live up to your expectations? Any projects done yet to show up pictures of?

Stustoys 15th May 2011, 06:13 PM Nice setup indeed. I've seen those "TTS Zero Master" just what do they do? maybe I need one(maybe I've asked this question before but if I have I've forgotten the answer :()

I am pretty sure they are like the 3D Taster sold by H&F's

It is a very well designed machine and the build quality is excellent too, everything I got came in four boxes (two strapped together as one) and it all went together without a problem, I had to install the drive for the fourth axis in the control box on the right hand side of the column, and just followed the printed instructions.
I don't have a lot of spare time to play with the machine at the moment, so there are no projects yet all I have done so far is to have a play with a few of the Mach 3 wizards.

RayG 16th May 2011, 01:52 AM Hi Will,
Very impressive machine, I just watched a few of the video's on the Tormach web site.
Looking forward to hearing more about how you find to use in practice, and seeing what it can do!.
Nice machine :2tsup:
Regards
Ray
PS Stuart,
I've seen those "TTS Zero Master" just what do they do? maybe I need one...
Stuart
Yes you need one... It's for setting zero ( for the CNC axes ) against a reference point...

So its a dial gauge that reads in three planes? maybe u tube will help me.

pipeclay 16th May 2011, 02:09 PM I think you will find its a purpose made Indicator,you set your zero or datum for your tool changes.
Once they have been set during a run its continuos tool changes with each tools zero datum preset in the controller.
