    3 jaw chuck runout?

    Lee buy yourself a good "Strong" brand 3 jaw chuck.........mine has less than 0.001" runout. When I got it I put a piece of 1" tool steel in the jaws and mounted the chuck on the spindle in the six different positions.......one position had less runout than the others, I also tightened the jaws...

    Interesting local 'primer story'.

    Al that's good to know but all the suppliers/importers here say that they aren't receiving everything they order, some retailers have started rationing primer sales.......I'm lucky I don't need to buy a lot to keep shooting, which leaves more for those that need them.........Ian

    Interesting local 'primer story'.

    Andy I'm told there is one importation of powder into Aussie each year so I imagine that the suppliers import quite a bit each time which would explain why the stock is still plentiful at the moment. But what happens when they do there next stock order and it can't be filled because the US...

    vfd on the big grizzly gun lathe?

    Lee I think you will find your two speed spindle motor is 4hp on high speed and 3 hp on low speed, this would be no trouble to run from a single vfd. If you ran the spindle motor on low speed you could use a 3hp vfd (as long as you don't switch the motor to high speed). If you wanted to run the...

    The new Sporter agenda item

    aka Hunter, you're interpretation of the first sentence assumes that recoil is not just rearward momentum of the rifle after being fired. Now the definition of recoil is (according to this website http://www.thefreedictionary.com/recoil) re·coil (r-koil) intr.v. re·coiled, re·coil·ing...

    When traveling Internationally with a firearm

    Just to let everyone know, due to public pressure Air New Zealand have revoked the "firearms handling fee" I'd like to thank everyone who made the effort to contact Air New Zealand about the firearms handling tax, it took every ones effort to achieve the outcome we got. Also Air New Zealand...

    Looking for a VFD

    oldpup223 if you are going to run a 3ph 5hp motor from single phase find out what the VFD manufacturer recommends, most VFD manufacturers only make single phase input VFD's up to 3hp, any bigger than that and they are usually 3 phase input.. I'm using a 10hp Hitachi WJ200 VFD to power a 5hp...

    Case Neck Turner

    The pumpkin is one of the best neck turners I've used, very easy to adjust, repeatable and easy to hold. Like someone said the easiest neck turner is getting someone else to turn them...........only problem with that is that when you have less than 5 shots into 0.074" your condition goes away...

    When traveling Internationally with a firearm

    Well if anyone is planning a trip overseas with a firearm or knows someone traveling to NZ with a firearm I would not recommend travelling with Air New Zealand. The reason is they have introduced a charge for travelling with firearms From NZ to Aussie it is NZ$120 plus a return charge AU$120...

    Could there possibly BE a worse response???

    Since I don't live in the US I have often wondered why these shootings happen, is it the media attention given to these senseless crimes or ??? Laws are only there for the law abiding to follow, criminals or people with criminal intention never will follow the existing law and certainly won't...

    Wonder why there are fewer jobs in the USA?

    Joe I had to laugh at that.......you should try employing people in NZ, even if you catch them stealing from the employer you can't fire them.........9 times out of 10 the employee would win a wrongfull dismisal case.......Kiwi
