I have a different model of Axiom but can you not increase and decrease the feed rate with your controller? For example your Y buttons and the spindle Z buttons.. I do it constantly on mine. Sometimes I’ll increase the speed significantly through long grain cuts and then back it down right when it’s approaching a cross grain transition.

A great video to show that a little knowledge can be a dangerous thing. Your camera work is horrendous, since 90% of your bench assembly was outside of the camera view. You've implemented a number of connections and and procedures that do not conform to the electrical code and would never pass an inspection. Just because it works, does not mean that it's done right. If your house ever burns to the ground, the fire marshal will have a forensic inspection of your electrical systems analysed and when the electrical code violations are identified, your home insurance policy will be rendered null and void and you'll receive no compensation to rebuild your home. Take this video down before you inspire another DIY'er to destroy their home.

Hey that you for posting your video. I own an axiom elite ar8 2X4 bed machine. I have had it since November. I am still learning every time I use it. My biggest thing I kill myself with is my tollerances. I seem to always make them too tight . But I am most intrigued by the "4th axis"unit. I was wondering if you have to own aspire to use the lathe. I was also wondering how the learning curve was to get up and running on your first project using the 4th axis.
@DragonwoodDesigns Жыл бұрын
You don't have to own Aspire. V-Carve (Not sure about desktop version) Pro consumes 3-D models in the form of .stl, .v3m, .3dm, . .skp, .rlf, .3ds, .asc, .prj, .x, .dxf, .lwo, .wrl, .obj. I bought the 3-D models from etsy in the form of downloaded .stl files for around 6 bucks, C'mon! You're not afraid of a little learning curve? 'Sides, that's just something someone just made up. As for up and running? It takes longer to setup than it does to generate your first rotary g-code. You do have to turn it in in the pendant or whatever controls the machine. They will explain all the details of getting up and running (and true). Chad at Axiom tech support is a wealth of information. I have had some really strange problems with mine, but working together we were able to find tht the drive sprocket had lost its set screw (slipped on the shaft, but tight enough to turn, but with no torque) Let me know if I can help!

Hi, I am working with the same blueprints and I’m having the same issues with acute cuts for several letters. Once you set your 45degree jig where do you set your saw to get your 13.2 angle? Also I’m using 5” wide pieces to give it a little more depth will your method still work? I’m using a 12” sliding miter saw. Thank you
@DragonwoodDesigns Жыл бұрын
If you pause the video at 1:50, you can se the sheet I used to calculate the angle. The saw was set at 45 degrees, Wouldn't it have been cool if I said "Here, Hold my beer" just before I made the cut? If I had to do it again, I would use a belt sander or disk sander. My saw is a 12" slider, also. I think these pieces were 4" tall. You would have to try it to see if 5" would work. Also, you could cut part way, then finish with a Japanese pull saw (Dozuki). Let me know when you get out of the hospital! BTW: "This video is intended for amusement only, not a recommendation on how to do something dangerous!"

I didn’t install a smart panel as you did. I just installed a 200 amp ATF switch. the 20 kw was enough to run a house with all gas appliances. I made the mistake of changing out the factory 90 amp breaker at the generator with a 125 amp. So when I overloaded it trying the run the older air compressor, it went passed the 125 beaker and the CTB and shorted the windings in my alternator. How it got passed the CTB and to the alternator ?

so, what all was involved in your rebuild. i found a 2002 20KW with less than 3hr's on it. I then made the big mistake and replaced the factory 90 amp breaker with a 125 amp . two weeks ago we lost power, for some reason i wanted to see if this unit would run my very old 5hp air compressor. well, it shut down my unit. It would restart but would keep trying to restart while already running. i picked up a new CTB , but still doing the same thing. BTY after a few times of the restarting it shuts down. I know the shutdown is because the CTB is not seeing power. hopefully I didn't burn up the windings. any help will be greatly appreciated
@DragonwoodDesigns2 жыл бұрын
Does not sound good! I am assuming the "CTB" is the controller board. Also assuming, that in 2002, the units were "dumb". IE, no display, just a row of red lights. Overspeed/No RPM Sense may have been lit in this case. Also, Over Crank could have been lit. My unit controls its speed (also hertz) by watching the output of the stator. No output would keep cranking. It would not know it was already running. Over crank comes on when it has tried 3 times and never got a signal (output power at a required hertz). [I believe this is what you experienced when you said after a few times of the restart cycle, it shut down for good. Power off/power on to get it going again?] How to quickly test your stator: Open the breakers on the unit, then remove top cover panel. Try and start the unit, just for a sec. Watch for a red led on the box on the right. (the box on the left is the battery charger.) No red LED, no power to the control module (CTB?). With the unit OFF (!), check continuity of the 2 legs (windings. Each winding puts out 120 volts, 180 degrees out of phase. Together they output 240 volts.) Check each of the 2 fat wires (might be black) going into the circuit breaker to the common neutral (might be white). Each, hot to neutral, should be around 20 - 30 ohms. Maybe even lower. Then check to each other, (black to black) Should be open lead, no continuity between windings. This is the manual page how to test www.manualslib.com/manual/807129/Generac-Power-Systems-Corepower.html?page=35 Gotta ask: Why did you want to change the 90 amp breaker? And what does CTB mean? I do understand the trying to “See what this baby will do” impulse is. First run of the house test, I HAD to try the A/C! Email me! I want to hear how this ends!

@DragonwoodDesigns2 жыл бұрын
The blades I used for the video were Freud (part number: D208M or SD208 depending on where you look on the label), 8" (printed on the blade), and they do measure 8-1/8 inch as you say. But the blade brake can handle the extra 1/16th (.0625 per side). Might have been tight, but in the end, required clearance was met. Probable could have handled blades 8-1/4? Just guessing but the dado blade brake (break!) works fine with Freud blades.

Would be the same thing as a smaller blade, ie an 8" dado, Yes, I did have to adjust the position, almost to the limit, but the supplied thickness gauge fit as required for proper operation. Just remember to set it back when putting on your regular 10" blade. If you don't, it will still run, but due to the increased distance, more teeth are going to pass before the blade stops and drops.

@DragonwoodDesigns3 жыл бұрын
I wanted to know if the dado brake was absolutely required. I didn't find anything on Y-Tube or in the manual on whether this would work or not. Was there something in the manual that I missed? My bad if I did. I wouldn't mind making dado cuts with the safety disabled and spend the extra $100 on wood or supplies. The fact that the saw detected no blade near the brake and errored out proved my point (to myself). I think I even tried it in bypass mode (brass key on side). Still, no joy. Once the $100 goodie was added, the saw works as expected. I have not had the saw trip on either brake, although after cutting 8/4 hard maple it just shut off, mid cut. I cycled the power and it worked fine for a couple of days. Then it did it again. I reset and finished the job and have not had the opportunity to cut anything that thick since. Things have slowed down since the p-demic. Thanx for watching, tho. It was a fun video to make!
