Finally was able to make my Rook for class today, on the CNC lathe. Turned out rather nice. I still will need to put it on the CNC mill, so I can cut in the grooves that go around the top. It's amazing how fast this CNC lathe, can make my Rook, compared to how long it took me to write the code! #athenstechmachinetool #cncmachining #cncprogramming #chessset (at Athens Technical College Walton County Campus)

I was able to finish programming my Rook chess piece, on Monday in class this week. Thank goodness we a patient teacher! This definitely wasn't the easy process as I thought it was going to be! The picture and video I'm posting, you will see the simulated part that I will be making in the CNC lathe, Wednesday in class. You will understand the video better, once I'm able to post a video of the Rook being made in the lathe. #cncmachining #athenstechmachinetool #cncchessset #cnclatheturning (at Athens Technical College Walton County Campus)

Working at home tonight, using CNC simulator Pro to work on my g code, that I I have been working on this week for my CNC lathe class. #cnclathes #cncprogramming #athenstechmachinetool #cncsimulator (at Comer, Georgia)

Drilling Cycle Simulation gone bad. Today in class for CNC lathe manual programming, I'm testing my G-Code, I've written for a lathe test part. As you can see in the video, the point of my tool, that should be traveling deeper into my part, going left or in Z, is just sitting there vibrating. This is due to a small error in punctuation. Believe it or not, the point of my tool is moving but its doing it very slowly! So because I put a Q1 instead of Q.1 on my can cycle line, my simulated drill bit is pecking into my part at about .0001 at a time. THIS IS A VERY SMALL NUMBER. So to put this in real time for better understanding. The tip of my drill bit will need to travel roughly 5in, to go all the way through this test part. So at normal speed the drill bit would probably do this in about 20 to 30 seconds. At my current decimal goof speed, I believe it would take about one to two hours to get through the part. So yes; a decimal maybe very little in size, but they can make a BIG DAM difference! :0) #cncmachining #cnclathe #athenstechmachinetool #cncprogrammer (at Athens Technical College Walton County Campus)

In shop class today, I'm getting the business end of my soft face hammer, ready to do some threading. This is where the Hammerhead will screw on to my hammer handle. #athenstechmachinetool #lathes #softfacehammer #latheproject (at Athens Technical College Walton County Campus)
