New G0602 Setup

[RJSakowski]

Off topic but IMO, the forum is definitely worth supporting. I waited for several months before becoming a supporter, the first year with $10 and ever since with a $25 donation. With over 43K registered users (as of 2022), if everyone were to contribute, it would greatly enhance the operating budget of the forum.

Edit: I realize that some of our members are retired and/or on fixed incomes. I am one of them. But a $10/yr contribution is less than the cost of a meal at a fast food joint or a couple of drill bits or an end mill.

I just ignore the requests for bank account linkage.

In my opinion, this forum is worth supporting. I've received a whole lot of knowledge and help from here. So I try to help others here with what I've learned and experienced, to pass it along.

As to pay pal I did that and the limited my account to the point of un-usability so no longer using it. I would love to support this sight, does anyone know of another way to pay than PayPal?

Maybe we can create a new thread on this? Don't want to dilute this one. In the off-topic area I would imagine, as it is not really machining related.

PayPal and supporting Hobby Machinist related issues

Wanted to start a separate thread about ways to support Hobby Machinist. This is a place holder.

i'm redesigning my compound and looked at his but am concerned that instead of pulling the base of the compound slide down onto a solid surface it clamps the round column that the compound base is attached to, i just think that is more places to flex where when the base of the compound slide is pulled down you have a larger footprint so longer moments to increase rigidity.

Any thoughts on this?

This is the type project where I would like to have a surface grinder, set up and grind the 2 mating surfaced truly flat. I have read a lot about guys having issues with rigidity and it makes me wonder if some of the issues have more to do with the machining of the mating surfaces....

I used a card.
