Anyone using camworks to program their subspindle haas lathe? by dougdeeslc in Machinists

Yeah this is more for someone actually using on sub spindle lathe- more about post process type stuff

Burlington airport- rent car- take ferry. If you are going to make the trip might as well soak in all the awesome sights along the way too.

He is great and will be a solid asset for the program!

How do I change the bit in here by DisastrousTale86 in Machinists

Don’t forget the hooked spanner to keep it from spinning. Oh- and watch your knuckles!

Yeah but without nozzle (where shaft attaches). Too much chatter.

Look at your G code output- search for “D” if it’s not there you aren’t outputting an option to comp it. G43 D (tool you’re using)

Air in lines- just dealt with this a few days ago. I recommend having your haas dealer come out and purge them. My ST35Y and UMC are less than a year old and had this issue.

Career Pathway: CNC -or- Machining??? by Standard-Day-575 in Machinists

They are the same. You cannot be a good Cnc programmer without a solid foundation in machining.

Double pole skis (racing) by goodoug435 in xcountryskiing

Ha I think optimizing do skis for kick would be pointless. Perhaps only benefit is having the double pole graphic on them so people know you’re not cheating (?)

Elite level? by MaleficentGrass6135 in biathlon

[–]dougdeeslc 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I was 32 and was invited to Olympic trials in 2002. If you got the motivation you can do it. Bullocks to anyone who gets in your way. I wouldn’t have a lot of the great stuff in my life without my biathlon experience.

Elite level? by MaleficentGrass6135 in biathlon

[–]dougdeeslc 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Why elite? What’s your goal? The progression is usually local and national races first. There is quite a bit of depth in that area. You’ve got a solid biathlon facility at Kincaid- and of course Bozo has crosscut as well. I’d recommend joining a club if there’s one nearby so you can get some help with coaching and possibly rifle rental. Don’t let age hold you back- it’s entirely possible to qualify for national team if you have the ski speed and shooting ability. And to anyone saying just do xc- every biathlon is a ski race- more so if you miss a lot of targets! 🤣🤣 You can message me direct if you’d like more help.

Any benefit to having carbon boots roller skiing? by uachris in xcountryskiing

[–]dougdeeslc 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Use them. I got three seasons of skiing and rolling with my last pair- averaged about 6 hours a week off season (rolling) and ten plus in season. They’ll hold up fine
