I am in New Paltz with a 5'x10' ATC machine. Look up Clean Air Woodworks and get in touch so I don't have to post my contact info here. Do you have a CNC machine, or are you looking for someone...

I forget the HTS number, but customs was only $450 as they wrote me a low value invoice for customs purposes. Port fees and warehouse fees were higher, about $2000 total. They should have (or will)...

I don’t have a picture, but they are designed to be plumbed to 2” pvc and I placed them outside the shop with plumbing inside that runs up under the CNC bed and put an outlet port on the side of my...

That’s really cool to find VFDs that are able to also acts as a voltage transformer and convert lower single phase voltages into higher three phase voltages. That really opens up a lot more used...

A VFD will magically create 3 phase output from single phase input, but it won’t magically create 380v output from 240v input. Unless that spindle is able to accept 240v input as well (seems...

These spindles are going to be rated at both a maximum instantaneous power rating (7.5kw) and a maximum continuous power rating (5.7kw).

What you sent shows that the VFD is rated for an input...

I bought my CNC direct from a Chinese manufacturer and you get much better value for the money. I probably spent as long as it would take to assemble an Avid in purchasing conversations, Customs,...

Sold out, of course. I was just about to buy one. Price is good, all depends on if the angles are correct for wood. I have heard that it is the clearance angle that makes the most difference. I...

Yeah, it won’t be doing much for a bit as my wife is in the hospital (but getting better as of today). Good thing that I didn’t buy an expensive machine on credit or I would be worrying about the...

Get a vacuum table, just not the cheap vacuum pumps. They probably offer better rotary vane pumps (either Chinese or Becker, etc), even a Roots blower is supposed to be pretty good. Just don't go...

Great. It is certainly a game changer, especially because I would not otherwise be able to afford (or want to take the risk) of a $80,000 purchase for something else comparable.
I like the LNC...

Here is a short video I took cutting some pockets using a 1/2" 3 flute rougher in box store sheathing plywood to make parts for one of my...

3800 pounds listed shipping weight.

I have largely quit this forum, but I am happy to respond.
My Chinese CNC machine has been working great so far. I have been modifying it here and there to fit my needs. Mostly small stuff. It...

Very true. Good point. It all depends on the specific projects that are desired and volume required. I would bet that they could make a combination machine that combines a standard 3 axis CNC with...

The OP specifically asked about purchasing a CNC lathe from the company StyleCNC in the initial post, Bill. It is exactly on topic to answer his question with my purchasing experience as that is...

All the CNC machines have 4th axis lathe attachments either as a standalone fixture, or a bed-mounted heavy unit. Lots of options the mount either along the short X-axis or along the entire Y-axis...

Unfortunately I started a post about my purchasing experience already, but Bill George decided that he thought I was a paid salesman for the company and was advertising, which couldn’t be further...

I happen to have just purchased a STM1530C 5’x10’ CNC from StyleCNC. The giant container ship carrying my machine finally is close enough to have a firm arrival date of Feb 28th. I would be happy...

Port costs just came in and are $968. Not too bad and quite what I expected. Customs fees are next and are expected to be another $1000, with perhaps $500 for the customs broker team. I am still...

This is called a 1+1 bit, so it has kinda 1 flute. Or it really has 2 flutes, but the cutters are arranged in a staggered chip breaker orientation with each one overlapping the next 50%. So I am...

Since my other thread got closed down. I wanted to show off the new PCD compression end mills that I just got, again direct from a Chinese manufacturer. Cost a whopping $112 for two bits including...

You have a post asking about running a Harvey bandsaw on a voltage transformer, I (perhaps wrongly) assumed that you owned that saw seeing that you were calling the company for tech support. But...

So why did you buy a “crap quality” Harvey bandsaw? You do know that it is made in China, right? How could you be so “cheap” to buy such poor quality tools?

Why bother commenting on this post...

Of course I am. What’s with everyone here? How many items have you imported before? Because this is not my first, and won’t be my last.

In fact there are two layers of the customs process. ...
