Andy, do you polish on the green pods? We always have more vacuum than that and very rarely have anything move using Blick pods, are the seals in good shape.

Depending on the stone, we hit the edge first with an almost wore out 100 or 200 grit pad to hit the high points, then a brush or two. I think we use the 60, 120, and 240 brushes.

There is nothing more aggravating than spending huge amounts of money for machines that are capable of milling down to the .001... as well as the painstaking hours to get our table inside of .003 over 16 ft ... then buying top quality tools... just to find out that a pod or two is too short and tea...

As far as i know that is it on say just offsetting lines. How can the software decide what side of the line to offset for the blade and a single unjoined, unconnected line. With the geometry there should be a way in the latest software but it takes less than five minutes to program most slabs manual...

You do have to account for blade kerf when programming. Say you need multiple 3" strips draw a box the size you need say 3" x 96", and then offset the line as geometry 3.15 and make sure the tool directions are on the outside, hit the go button and it should cut perfect 3" pieces. Our normal granite...

We would be interested in testing the software as well.

If it stops in random places every time you could have a bad rotary encoder. If it stops in the same place you when you try to load or unload tools it was probably crashed and a NW tech can talk you through resetting it. Hopefully it may just be the belt needs replacing and position reset.

We have owned a LT-55, a Leica 3d Disto and now a Proliner 7. We have found the Proliner to be so much faster and more accurate that we have not touched the laser in months. The LT software is very easy to use and it is used in our office for simple layout and quotes daily. We take only raw data on ...

We are running 1,2,3,and 5 diamonds on ours and back grind on the cart when it comes off the router.

On the other hand, I've run them (A30 r5orr6) for almost a year and recently went back to Terminator for this profile. We did run them to polish but the results were not as good as other tools we have run and we never ran them at their advertised speed of 400 ipm. We ran 2 tools at 295 and the polis...

We run a surface pro 2 and it seams to work great. The only problem is that if you don't shut it down after measuring it does not like to reconnect to wifi from sleep mode.

Enhanced concealed carry here. Concealed carry only requires background check and 90 day wait, the enhanced endorsement requires an eight hour class. With an enhanced permit in Mississippi just about no place is off limits but police dept. or courtroom. Everyone is different but most officers I know...

We do mostly 3cm but love the sinkits. They are so must faster to install and takes just a minute to machine the holes. We drill to about 5/8 in 3cm.

On our Northwood with the slab texturing software we seem to average about 2 hours a slab on most granite we have tried. We have some silver travertine to do this week and some black pearl so I will have the guys check the times. We have been very pleased with the results so far.

I'll take the vacuum rails Eric did not want.

We have plenty but it would be closer to just drive to Atlanta.

I have a friend needing some digital templates made in New Orleans LA. I don't have the time right now and he needs it pretty quick. Anyone close? It's at the LSU school of dentistry.

We bought a Weha Flip cart (display at St Louis ) last year for around 400 I believe but we also use an assortment of shop carts just as much. Sometimes we load every part by hand and some with a vacuum lifter but most of the time we use a clamp. Everyone trust the clamp more than the vacuum. Just w...

I would try mb 20 or tin oxide first. I recently top polished a seam in black pearl because of a badly bowed piece of stone and started at 100 grit. Took about 3 hours but looked great and GC could not find it. Most important thing is not to rush or you will have to redo. Mb20 is amazing for top pol...

I know I have several from IPT cb210's laying around I usually take them out before the customer sees them .if you need one or more let me know I'll put them in the mail today.

I'm trying to set up to cut t-31 slots on the cnc, and need some speed and feed rates for the blind core bit and t-31 bit. I'm cutting for 3/16 anchors. Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks

I'll take 1 .

We also bought some from G&L as Copper brown about 2 years ago. I think I still have a piece of a slab.

We got it Monday.
