What is the correct way to calculate the drill sizes please. I will do
the metric table but I just need to know what is the right way.

Thanks, but Rob did the conversion last night and now I'm adding metric
fine and metric coarse to it.
The metric side will need to be checked for accuracy as soon as I'm done.

Ok, good. I will help with checking once you are done.

He thinks it is probably an alternistor triac, and that something from
here would be a substitute.

Not necessarily. TRIACs require a minimum latching current to flow

Almost certainly commutation signals for the drive.
There are quite a few 6-channel encoders out there (often called

Essentially what I want to do is to make 9 copies of a shape, and, thought
"if I make 9 imaginary fixtures, I can simply change to the next fixture
and machine the part again"
Of course, if you think like a programmer and don't want to know
anything about G92 or stuff like that, you just write a gcode subroutine
to make the part. The subroutine takes two arguments, the X and Y
coordinates of the (center, edge, whatever) the part.
Then call the subroutine once for ea

Thank you! I do not know, why I did not think about clearing that offset
right in subroutine, so that all the coordinates remain untouched in
I do the same thing on my plasma cutter, jog to the start point and use
the G92 magic.

The SEM MT30H44's motors I have use a white terminal under the rear end
cap. To answer you previous question on the tach leads .. they
typically go back to the tach inputs on the amp.
Ah! Drive terminals are marked A1 & A2 and tach terminals are marked
T1 & T2. :-)

Greetings all;
I just got back from Staples, where I picked up off the shelf, a microsoft
LifeCam that claimed to do true hidef, marked $99 on the shelf, rang up for
$40.29 at the register.
On getting it home and the packaging demolished, I plugged it into a usb
hub and lo, and behold even hot

It's actually very easy. For a metric thread the tapping drill is the
nominal thread diameter - pitch.
M6 x 1 ? 5mm tapping drill.
M10 x 1.75? 8.2mm tapping drill.

Now would that be a 50% or 75% thread. JT's tables needs both. One for
