    Trotec Rotary Attachment Threads

    Does anyone know what size the threads are that the cones screw onto are for the Trotec Rotary attachment?

    I'm not 100% sure it will be the same, I only have a rotary for my Flexx400, not the speedy 300. I had a few parts custom made for me, and my machinist said the thread was M10 x 1.5 pitch, I didn't test myself, but I'll believe what he told me in this case.

    Probably. That's a pretty standard metric thread. If they don't have them, try a NAPA auto parts.

    Greg,

    Depending on your interests, it might be worth picking up a thread gauge. They sort of look like a thickness feeler gauge and normally have metric and SAE on the same unit. Dirt cheap and really handy. Also a drill and tap guide. I use them all the time since I am not one of those disgusting people who can glance at a screw and casually say it is a such and such with so and so threads.
    900x600 80watt EFR Tube laser from Liaocheng Ray Fine Tech LTD. Also a 900x600 2.5kw spindle CNC from Ray Fine. And my main tool, a well used and loved Jet 1642 Woodlathe with an outboard toolrest that helps me work from 36 inch diameters down to reallllllly tiny stuff.

  8. Pen engraving adapter?

    Hello Keith, do you have any pictures of your pen engraving jig?

    Thank you, Ed
