  • Paul Sellers' Workbench Measurements and Cutting
    PAUL SELLERS’ WORKBENCH MEASUREMENTS AND CUTTING LIST PAUL SELLERS’ WORKBENCH MEASUREMENTS AND CUTTING LIST NOTE When putting together the cutting list for my workbench, I worked in imperial, the system with which I am most comfortable. I was not happy, however, to then provide direct conversions to metric because to be accurate and ensure an exact fit this would involve providing measurements in fractions of millimetres. When I do work in metric I find it more comfortable to work with rounded numbers, therefore I have created two slightly different sets of measurements. This means that in places the imperial measurement given is not a direct conversion of the metric measurement given. Therefore, I suggest you choose one or other of the systems and follow it throughout. © 2017 – Paul Sellers v2 PAUL SELLERS’ WORKBENCH MEASUREMENTS AND CUTTING LIST WOOD QTY DESCRIPTION SIZE (IMPERIAL) SIZE (METRIC) (THICK X WIDE X LONG) (THICK X WIDE X LONG) 4 Leg 2 ¾” x 3 ¾” x 34 ⅜” 70 x 95 x 875mm 1 Benchtop 2 ⅜” x 12” x 66” 65 x 300 x 1680mm 2 Apron 1 ⅝” x 11 ½” x 66” 40 x 290 x 1680mm 1 Wellboard 1” x 12 ½” x 66” 25 x 320 x 1680mm 4 Rail 1 ½” x 6” x 26” 40 x 150 x 654mm 2 Bearer 1 ¼” x 3 ¾” x 25” 30 x 95 x 630mm 4 Wedge ⅝” x 1 ½” x 9” 16 x 40 x 228mm 4 Wedge retainer ⅝” x 1 ½” x 4” 16 x 40 x 100mm HARDWARE QTY DESCRIPTION SIZE (IMPERIAL) SIZE (METRIC) 1 Vise 9” 225mm Dome head bolts (including nuts and washers) for 4 ⅜” x 5” 10 x 130mm bolting legs to aprons 2 Lag screws (with washers) for underside of vise ½” x 2 ½” 12 x 65mm 2 Lag screws for face

  • Introduction and Analysis of the Ultrahigh Pressure Water Jet Cutting Multifunctional Application
    2017 WJTA-IMCA Conference and Expo October 25-27, 2017 ● New Orleans, Louisiana Paper INTRODUCTION AND ANALYSIS OF THE ULTRAHIGH PRESSURE WATER JET CUTTING MULTIFUCTIONAL APPLICATION Xue Shengxiong, Chen Zhengwen, Han Caihong, Ren Qile Hefei General Machinery Research Institute Hefei, Anhui, China Chen Bo Nanjing Dadi Water Limited by Share Ltd. Nanjing, Jiangsu, China Wu Ziquan All-Powerful Inc Shenyang, Liaoning, China Li Yuefeng Hua Zhen Mechanical Equipment Co. Ltd Guangzhou, Guangdong, China ABSTRACT The aerospace industry bring a new development for ultrahigh pressure water jet cutting technology, such as large scale curved composite components cutting process engineering application, large scale impeller rough cutting, special precise cutting, composite materials to milling, drill, polishing and so on. As National Advanced Technology Support Project of China for an opportunity, the author developed 500MPa ultrahigh pressure water cutting equipment for super large composite wing and a multifunction water jetting CNC center. This paper introduce the ultrahigh pressure water jet multifunctional technical features about these two equipments involved, and combine with the foreign development situation. The technical modules, parameter matching technology, process method and experiment result are analyzed to realizing the highly-difficult water jet cutting, milling and other applications. Organized and Sponsored by WJTA-IMCA 1. MARKET REQUIREMENT OF HIGH END ULTRAHIGH PRESSURE WATER CUTTING In China, technology and equipment development of ultrahigh pressure water cutting have been a full twenty years. The first water cutting machine developed by author is 250MPa of pressure, 2.5L/min of flow. And the current main water cutting products which use ultrahigh pressure intensifier or reciprocating pump are 400MPa of pressure, 3L/min of flow [1].

  • Bandsaw Puzzle Cubes
    Bandsaw Puzzle Cubes How’s that scrap pile in the corner of the shop coming along? Getting any smaller? Here’s one way to put some of your cherished chunks of thick stock to good use, producing casual gifts of irresistible appeal to young and old alike. Kids under ten can reassemble these puzzles in 30 seconds, grown-ups in only three or four minutes if they’re sharp. Make sure your bandsaw blade is square to the table, both left & right and fore & aft. The larger the puzzle cube, the less error you can get away with. Kerf width forgives some inaccuracy, but not much. Start off by milling up a cube — any size will do, but bigger is bet- ter: 3” x 3” or 4” x 4” makes a good puzzle blank. Put a 1/8” or 1/16” blade on your bandsaw, and don’t think about any claims you might have seen that you can’t cut thick stock with a very nar- row blade. Cool Blocks™ lateral guides are essential for 1/16”s and mighty useful for controlling 1/8” blades, too. Orient the cube so you’ll start cut- ting across the grain, and cut a ran- domly invented jigsaw puzzle pattern across the block. Make a fairly simple pattern. Push gently, using just your fingertips. Let the saw take its time working throughthe stock, so the blade stays vertical and your curves are consistent throughout.You’ll notice that sawing with the grain is much slower than across it; be ready for significant changes in speed and back pressure as you turn the block.
