We've been running ProShop for three years exclusively doing prototype work. At first I thought it was great and the problem was just a lack of knowledge of the system and a steep integration/learning curve. We were told that lots of shops use it for prototyping, in hindsight that was like...
Sounds fair to me. You designed the tool and made it real. If he's still helping push the idea and driving high percentage of the total sales, maybe keep the percentage going. If you're on your own with the sales and manufacturing, you're on your own.
Good question. Most of the projects we work on are already governed by NDA's and Intellectual Property Agreements or negotiated around a table with the attorneys. I've thought that being up front about the cost is the best way to equitably determine the "cut" amount. for example: I invested 230...
Hi All,
Sorry it looks so salesy... I wanted the pictures to post not the links. We make all of parts for this thing in house and have no expectation of making any money off of it... That said, we'd appreciate any support we can get. ...How I hate social media. I feel I'm being drug into this...
Hi All,
Wondering how many shops have had success spinning of small products or products lines? We are giving our first real attempt by launching a small curiosity project on Kickstarter. We've designed a made a handful of Finger Treadle Engines. We'll see how they go. It's a test campaign to...
Hi Mud,
I second the ChipBlaster! Impressive but pricey! I have also had good luck with the Guhring drills. Often they seem to be the only people who grind such drills. I have had good luck with OSG Helios drills also, but I reach for the Guhring catalog first. I have never found drilling...
...Thank you for looking after George's interests...
The rumors are correct, I am not the owner of this machine. I am looking for an interested buyer on behalf of the owner. I invested (maybe that's the wrong word...) significant time and some money into getting this machine running and...
Greetings all,
I have a 1985 FP5NC available for sale. It is equipped with the Dialog 3 control and is fully functional. It was under power and running earlier this year but has just recently been de-powered and moved to a heated storage. Needed to make room for the DMU80P... The operating...
Greetings All,
I am working on building a post processor for a newly acquired DMU80P five axis mill. Can anyone with a similar machine and control (MillPlus V4.10) provide some snippets of simultaneous five axis code that is known to work? This machine has an indexing head (either vertical or...
Howdy,
I have milled piles of Ni200. It machines well with soluble oil flood coolant. The minimum oil mist I have does not pull heat away fast enough an makes an irritating smoke. Sharp sturdy tools are a must. I don't bother with HSS. Speed can be your friend in the nickel alloys, but the low...
Greetings all! Trying to get my 1999 DMU80P with MillPlus (ver. 410) connected to a windows 7 PC via Ethernet. Anybody done this successfully using the tcpip.cfg file? Any succesful NFS transfers from windows using CNC Data Station or other NFS server for windows? Any help would be...
