[QUOTE="zero_zero, post: 108828, member: 9932"] I kinda got used to the fact that distributors (even the highly prized ones :( ) don't know sh*t when it comes to advanced questions... Have a feeling that after a time using and abusing a given system, I could give em a lesson... Fact is that people who really know stuff are few and far between, their precious time won't allow them to answer emails or phone calls, and you won't find any working for a reseller... Gotta take time and play with it so you'll learn by trial and error... Cannot comment on the EZ mill (or clones),but it looks like its designed with a very tight budget in mind... saved a couple of bucks putting a touch surface for tool offset detection instead of a simple switch (or better). Unless you going to mod/tweak it, design weakness will prevail every so often. If it makes you feel better: I almost got a heart attack when I peeked inside my DWX50 the other day.:scared: There is nothing a mill should have... anemic stepper motors (NEMA 14 ?) without dedicated drivers, plastic gears, pulleys and bicycle brake cables to move things around, no position encoders just limit switches on all axis (no wonder why it looses axis position upon stalling)...list could go on... Going to throttle down feed rates to extend its lifetime, period. Good thing: mine is 14 months old and had no major issues so far :pray: , but looking to get an extended warranty ASAP... [URL="http://hdigital.en.bytrade.com/product/1729336.htm"][COLOR="#000080"][B]This[/B][/COLOR][/URL] could be a fair price IMO for what its worth... [/QUOTE]
