Cutting a Vise Handle on the PCNC 770

[@onellesen]

@ TormachWhat holder is that you are using for the 3/8 bull nose seems long and not a standard nut?

[@tormachinc]

We are using the ER20M x M12 Modular Collet Chuck: www.tormach.com/store/index.php?app=ecom&ns=prodshow&ref=37182&portrelay=1

Great video! Love the fact that you shared cutting info and showed that that little machine can move some metal realtime. Now if my 1100 only had some more rpm and power to spare

[@bradselph6463]

Do you have a file you can share so I can make one for my machine?

[@joereid8902]

Thanks for the videos. Will my PCNC 770 bolt up on an 1100 Deluxe stand?

[@tormachinc]

The PCNC 770 hole configuration does not align with the 1100 stands. Thanks for the comment on the videos.

[@supermanhills]

did you programme this in conversational or use a cad/cam programme?

[@tormachinc]

This was programmed in SprutCAM: www.sprutcamamerica.com

[@supermanhills]

Why do you favour Sprut?

[@tormachinc]

SprutCAM offers high quality 4th Axis CAM programming, at a much lower cost.

[@supermanhills]

Tormach Inc. lower cost than...? what other options? surely for most fusion 360 is a more complete option, or is 4th a axis not free to hobbyists?

[@tormachinc]

Fusion is free for hobbyists, and we have a lot of customers who find it has all the features they need. SprutCAM offers some advanced features not available in Fusion, and a perpetual license for businesses. If you want a detailed explanation of the differences, please send us an e-mail at: [e-mail]

Can you share the file?

[@tormachinc]

We will share this file in a few weeks. Keep an eye out for our Project Library: www.tormach.com/projects.html

[@mitchellgordner6653]

Tormach Inc. Looked in the project library but didn't see it. Are you still planning to share this?

[@fytanman]

Seems like a lot of wasted material ?

[@Daniel-vq9zb]

fytanman chunk of 6061 is pretty cheap advertisement

[@gusbisbal9803]

Let us know when you come up with a better way to mill this from raw stock without making a seperate handle to save what is $5 worth of Aluminium for a once off piece.

[@onellesen]

it is a solid piece watch the video....

[@Hirudin]

Is this a one-off?

[@tormachinc]

We are now using this for demonstrations when customers come in to view the PCNC's, and we wanted to show a lot of chip removal.
