Important

To all the CIM Operators out there:

We have a Haas CNC Mill in our Metals/welding shop. Our machine is just 3-axis and has a 10-tool holder. Does anyone have some G-code programs that we could use to show our students how it works? Me and the metals instructor have spent about 2 months getting the thing operational (last guy didn't use it at all and it sat ~3 years). We're just looking for a program that might have 2-4+ tool changes to make something, anything... Our G-coding skills are not the greatest and we'd like to just have something to demo for the students while we self-teach ourselves...

I could write something little for you. Never programmed a Haas but I'm sure my fanuc skills will cut it. Find the operators manual online if you don't have it and read it. If you do have it. Read it.

I still have like 3 weeks saved up but I'm Saving that for WF, a silver lake trip, and Harlan.

Speaking of silver lake, when does it get warm enough to swim in?

July or august. I haven't been to SL since last year. I wanna know when you are going I will have some long shocks in the back of the jeep and can get down on some go fast/jumps.

I spent a TON of time there with my first jeep. The boys would have an awesome time together. Plan on staying at yogi bear campground. Its within walking distance of downtown and the go karts.

This weekend there is a huge mud event by me. The trucks with tractor tires were rolling in this morning. The great debate is do I go into work and make $ or do I fill a cooler and go watch them break stuff....

I vote for the cooler.



On another note my wife and kids are leaving for 8 days to Mississippi on Sunday.
I'm not gonna know what to do with myself.

Proctober fest in cedarburg? if so they just cancelled it on facebook, 1st post here --> https://www.facebook.com/#!/groups/162934397138153/

I have a feeling there are going to be a lot of angry people if they are already in town. I was going to go down and watch.
 
Yea. That was it.. that sucks. Guess I will work now. I gotta drive up and meet Bloose to pick up a crossmember anyways. Maybe I will have a little free time this weekend
 
Question for y'all. I'm on my way to NC. When I hit Indy I can take either 75 to Rt 34 to 64 or take 65 to 64 thru Lexington or some convoluted route through Cincy. I'll need a route where I can find a decent place to sleep if I can't make it to Charleston tonight. I have about an hour and a half till I hit Indy. Any suggestions?
 
i think 65 to 64 is the best.

i dont know about places to sleep tho

65 to 64 will bring you right past my house. Louisville traffic shouldn't be an issue this late. It's kind of a pain in the ass when pulling a trailer though. If you're coming back through Sunday I should have time to grab some grub.

If I'm pulling good time, I'd be down for some grub! About an hour out from Louisville now. Making ok time so far, but dang the time change sucks.
 
Comin' at you live! From the Kwik-Stop & Motel in Wausaukee! Should be in my blind within the next 45 minutes.

Good Morning!!!

Weekend alone to myself and of course I'm up at 5:30... 34 degrees out here and I'm thinking of going down to the fire pit and lighting it up...
 
Good morning from West Virginia!

I'm just off 65 at exit 76 near the big ass outlet mall, a lot of choices there to eat.

Stay on the interstate. The other route through the mountains will take you through a lot of small towns.

There's multiple truck stops and exits between Louisville and Charleston on 64. Be careful after charleston on 77, there's no gas stops until you get to the beckley service area (where you'll get raped for gas) or down to princeton at exit 9. If you can swing it, I would fill up before you get into Charleston and make your way to Wytheville, VA, where the gas is the cheapest. That puts you about 40 miles from the NC line.

Thanks for the info! Stopped in Wytheville like you suggested. Only 3 more hours and I get to turn around and do it again.

There's a channel on directv that shows torc, wrc and some other stuff. It's called maverick or something around the 215-220 channel range.

Can't help you with regular tv.
 
Some reason I feel like my Lycra wearing cyclist side could catch some jeep guys off-guard. Haha

Yeah but your gun toting Merican side fits in with us very well! :D
