You really need to support the outer end, any 'whipping' will only get worse.
Once saw a 1" bar overhanging the back of the headstock of a Colchester student by 2'. Seemed perfectly straight for a while until almost instantly it bent to 90 deg and the whole lathe was moving :o
Some brave...
I'm just a thick hardware engineer but our software guys are seeing increasing amounts of virus' on MAC OS' these days and now they are creeping onto linux based servers too.
Seems to be 'we've done the easy ones, lets do the rest!'

Just before resigning my HBM to the bin, in a drunken state over Christmas, I thought I'd have another go. (I'm normally in a drunken state anyway but that bit makes me feel better :whistle: )
Stripped the chuck down again, nothing to be found, not suprising seeing I hadn't used it.
Stuck it...
I've got a HBM 5" 3-Jaw, you wouldn't believe the amount of particles of swarf that came out of it when I stripped it down to clean from new, had to deburr all the jaws and sliding surfaces too :(
After all that I still cant get the runout below 0.16mm TIR (compared to my 4" Bison chuck which...
YES!!!
When I was under orders from senior management to put a spure socket in the front room it was handy to pull the excess cable through (that's about it though :laughing: )
Going back to my childhood though, and spending my summer holidays with my Dads family in Brittany, I remember the...
Ooh laserjet 4000's, been a while since I've worked on them, very good little workhorse though. Having to go from memory here (which isn't as good as it used to be) but I remember upping the density was a trick used for when printing envelopes to prevent smudging at the trade in of a grey...
We used to do warrenty repairs on HP plotters. I'd buy an HP if I needed one, the only trouble really are carriage belts that wear out and very occassionally the carriage itself packs up (usually due to ink spillage)

Thanks for the replies guys :hug:
I'm not sure what make of bike it is but I reckon it cost a few bob as it had a couple of grands worth of wheels on it :o
At the moment it looks as its going the way Chunko said with a hacksaw and cold chisel. As my boss said it has to come out and is...
Funnily enough I thought of that but it's a right hand thread. Apparently not all frames have a right & a left hand thread, some are both right hand it seems (so he tells me) :dontknow:
Gents,
Bit off topic I know but this ones got me a bit stumped :(
My boss is a very keen cyclist and in the process of stripping down one of his frames has got in a right two & eight!
The bit where the pedals/crank (?) go through has a fine thread in the steel frame which has two seperate...
Thanks guys :hug: I now have something to go on. Funnily I was erring towards Samsung & LG and it turns out that the people that put my satellite in also sell Samsung tellys so I might wander in during the week waving some readies and see what they can come up with.
Thaks again.

I has something similar when I replaced my regulator with a Wescol one. There was literally only a thou or two between the union nut and the regulator when fully tight (didn't think it was going to tighten up) but on the old one it was tight with 1/4" to spare.

My missus has decided that we need to replace our old, slightly knackered, telly with something more up to date which is fine by me if she's paying :laughing:
Thing is I know bu**er all about them :( We think we want a 42" job but at this point onwards I'm lost. Don't know the difference...
