Gritter's chambering video
- Thread starter Butch Lambert
- Start date
You can buy a longer stylus for the Interapid test indicator from MSC - no need to purchase another indicator. I bought a 2.75" stylus for my 312b-3 and a 2" stylus for a B&S bestest .0001" indicator (actually, the 2" B&S stylus was one of the two free contacts that they're giving when you purchase a bestest indicator from Enco). I've also got one of the Mitutoyo test indicators with the round body like Gordy uses in the DVD, but haven't purchased a longer contact point for it yet. Guess I should get cracking on that little detail, as it would fit into the rough-drilled chamber and allow me to check for bore runout before boring the drilled hole true.
Ok, I bought the 2.75" one. I also bought the drill rods from MSC, in case I do not like the brass ones.
Thanks eyeryone for the advice.

I was one of the many "observers" at the SHOT Show demonstration, which was a very enjoyable experience. Just a suggestion for Grizzly, though…perhaps the company could double their floor space for next year, or at least request a "corner booth" so that more attendees of the SHOT Show can watch your excellent presentation. The overhead video display worked very well, but for us "curious 'smiths" it was very cozy experience.

i'll jump in for grizzly...
there was NO room for grizzly this year, the space they got was the results of a cancelation...they made the best of what was available.
if you go back thru the posts you will see all of this........

Actually, the only reason we got that booth was because they had a cancellation. It was 200 sq. feet, which is ridiculously small, but it was either that or nothing.
When we do shows, our normal booth size is several thousand sq feet. For example, we are doing the IWF in August this year (International Woodworking Fair - the largest woodworking machinery show in the world) and our booth size is 8,000 sq feet. We are taking about 100 different machines and will have 30 Grizzly employees there. SHOT Show on the other hand is very difficult to get space in and your choice of booth is based on seniority, same with most major shows. For the 2009 SHOT Show, we tried to get 1500 sq feet, but by the time it was our time to pick the largest space left was in the back of the hall, 400 sq feet. We took it and will just keep working our way up.

You're right. I meant to post my comment a couple weeks ago and just skipped over the last 3 or 4 pages.
Thanks again Gordy and Shiraz for the outstanding demonstration. My first knee mill was a Grizzly and it still runs great.
