Thanks Chris. I just took off the front plates and it is clean inside. I'm going to take off the inverter cover and see what the code is.
My G0766 refused to restart after I had been using it for about an hour. The digital display is off and the green button doesn't stay in. I checked and the power is ok. I have had it for several...
Looks great Mark, which kit did you buy? I'm looking for one.
James, try using a little Johnson paste wax between the blank and the bushing before you turn. Just a small amount! Works for me.
Very nice pen, Brian
Thanks, Pete. I just downloaded the book.
If it's going to be painted I would use Poplar or soft Maple.
Peter, you have the right idea! I have an extra live center I can use to make one.
Bernie, it did take some arguing but they did come through. Now I feel better that it wasn't just my problem.
Jamie, I did call PSI and after several period on hold and a few return calls from PSI they agreed to refund my $14.95 and replace my damaged mandrel. I guess persistence pays off! BTW I won't use...
Yes Paul, that is exactly what it did. It ground rings into the mandrel and froze up. There were two o rings that came out but only one slot inside. Maybe it was assembled wrong. I'm going to call...
I tried the PSI mandrel saver over the weekend and had problems!! It somehow ground itself onto my mandrel and wouldn't come off. The center separated from the body and wouldn't bulge from the...
If your coming to the gulf coast of Florida you had better come quick before the oil covers all our beaches. I would avoid the north Florida gulf area because the oil spill is heading that way for...
zhi, Here is the pencil I just finished (5-1) and it went together perfectly! If you squared the blank off correctly than your problem is in your assembly.
I've had two break i the last 3 months and neither came off all the way. But they scared the hell out of me. BTW these were Timber Wolf, one broke at the weld and the other at a different place.
Zhi, I don't have any finished pencils left at the moment but I believe I have a couple of kits and I will try to make one tomorrow.
I have made a lot of PSI Polaris pencil kits without any problems. Are you trimming the blanks properly?
Jamie, their easy to sharpen. I just give them a few strokes with a small file.
It's better to add surplus power now than try to add it later! I have 150 amps now in a 1000 sq ft shop and I'm going to add another 300 next month. I'm glad I put in the 150 when I did as I won't...
David, The train is 32" long and with the trestle is about 8" high. It's close to Garden Scale.
Jay, I built it from plans I obtained from Forrest Street Designs. I have built a couple of their carousel horses and marble towers as well.
Thanks for the nice comments everyone! I'm not starting anything that complex for awhile, I need to finish up some old projects and maybe turn some pens. Thanks.
Eric, the train is going on the wall in my game room so I can look at it when I play pool!
Rick, about 3 months working on it when I had the time.
