Heya,
Been having a time keeping the z truck vertical on the X axis. It always wants to kick for and back.
When I was doing things that would push it around, I figured it was my fault.
But now that I'm simply clearing holes with a 0.006" (about 432 ipm with a 4 flute mill) feed with a 0.75" depth of cut in MDF at 18000 RPM and it sends it out of whack by a degree, I'm starting to become frustrated. And I don't want to wiggle the holes bigger and make this a more pronounced issue over time.
I've tried blocking it with wood (image attached) - seems not to be working. Is the next step to weld this thing together (which also seems like a bad idea (TM))
Image of entire machine included so people can see which model I'm working with.
Anyone have this issue and find a way to resolve it? I'd love to hear about it!
Or is 0.75" on this machine just too much for an item of this generation?
Cheers
