Short update time.

The new spindle is in, and the gearbox is reassembled with new bearings. That's the good news. The bad news is that now the damned thing is not shifting as smoothly as it should be (I'm hoping that it's just a little dry and will loosen up with a little more use and lube), and I have a rubbing bearing shield that has to come out. Luckily it's right at the top of the stack, so there aren't many parts to pull to get to it.

Once that irritation is dealt with, I can run the spindle in, then reassemble the enclosure (hopefully water tight this time), and build my new sliding door system to seal the deal (ha pun ).

Two more weekends of work at least, maybe three, but then I do believe she will be done and ready to make chips again.

I've been using this lag time to ponder on your fixturing needs Home, and I think I may have it licked finally. We shall see how it goes. If this go 'round doesn't turn out well, I may need to bow out of the eye installs on anything but ULE bodies in order to expedite this project some.

I know that's a poor solution, but I'd rather not do anything at all, rather than turn out work that is half-assed and looks the part. However, that said, I will only resort to this if all my other options fail miserably.

On a slightly OT note, is it hotter than hell where you all are? It's been 100+ Deg F all week here in MO. Damned August.

Felt hotter than it was because of the humidity.
Some days the humidity feels like you could cut it with a knife..

The beauty of living in Colorado.

But then again I'd rather have it hot than cold, I'm allergic to that evil white stuff.

The flip side.

[UTDragun]

rained last night so 106 and 90% humidity in Knoxville. I feel sorry for those who are at band camp from 9-9

[CoolHand]

Yeah, tell me about it.

It's been 107 Degs here for the last week straight, and not a drop of rain in sight.

Personally, I'm on strike from the shop until it cools down. Everything is harder to do when it's that hot. The machines all hate me when they're that hot, hell even I hate me when it's that hot.

Nosir, I like you lot, but not that much.

If it rains like it's supposed to later on today, I might run into town and re-level the CNC, assuming the temp dips below 90 deg afterwards. This is Missouri though, so there's no guarantee that the former will cause the latter.

It's gotta cool off eventually though, I'll not be denied my shop time forever.

yea its been like that here in kansas too, down in the motorpool, even with ac its still around 100..

Karta Eye Covers

Just wondering.....

There is no guarantee on anything weather related here in missouri. Just had to post becuse for the first time in almost a month we finally got some rain saturday night. This weather has been killer!

Yeah, Friday and Saturday was pretty nice. I spend both days out in the shop working on my enclosure, and now it is nearly finished. I still have to cut down, punch, and hang the rubber skirts as well as cut and assemble the sliding door track (but that can't be done until I reassemble it around the machine).

It sure did feel good to get out into the shop and DO something again. Broke out the welder and made sure I hadn't forgotten how to use one ( I hadn't , though a loose gas nozzle made me doubt myself for about an hour).

Home - Don't roll your eyes at me, sir. You'll end up with a pink and green tiger striped karta if you ain't careful!

Actually, things are going pretty well. I think I have your eye covers figured out (the process to cut them that is), but I still need to alter and post the code.

I've still got to pull the drawbar cylinder and kill that squealing bearing shield, but I think I'm going to do that on Fri or Sat night (of this week). It's slow, but it's progress. I'll take some pics when I get the head back together (the second time).

Played paintball saturday.
Almost died.
It was way too stinking hot, and we had a gulley washer friday night so water was standing everywhere and humidity was insane.
Made it where you almost couldnt breathe it was so humid.
I have got to remember to go to Walgreens and get some salt pills.
Drank lots of water but was still overheated and I think I sweated all the salt out
of my body because I felt terrible the rest of the day, no matter how much water I drank.

We have been getting rain at night, here and there but it just raises humidity and makes it miserable for paintball.

Alright guys, I have more news, but it ain't the warm fuzzy kind.

I'm still battling issues with my CNC machine, and I'm busy as hell at the day job, so that's a weekend thing only for the foreseeable future.

This leads me to an unpleasant but necessary announcement:

I'm simply not going to be able to do the eye installs in a timely fashion, so I will not be doing them at all.

Anyone who paid for said service will get a refund check along with their frame.

The two or three guys who bought whole markers with ULE bodies will get the eye covers that I already have made, and a refund for the eye install.

I'm sorry for having to do this, but at this point, I want these frames done and in you alls hands. I will not have this turn into a devil mag part deux.

Home - Please PM me the ano colors you have in mind, so I can get your stuff off to Gruntbull next week sometime.

I will run down the list and see who else's stuff can go to ano as well, and dispatch emails confirming your ano choices in the next few days.

Once again, I am sorry to do this, but I don't really have any other options at the moment. I can either deliver a product that is 90% kick ***, and let you guys find other smiths with more time on their hands to do the eye installs, or wait ad infinitum while I get my various and sundry machine troubles ironed out.

Since the chances of a major crap up are greater the longer this goes on, I think it's best we cut bait and call it a day.
