Re: UPS size for CNC shark and pc?

Thanks for the good info. I agree I would rather have it stop in its tracks rather than running without the spindle running.

Thanks!

Hello all,

I just moved to Florida, and since I have been here have lost momentary power a couple of times, ruining my projects.

I figure a UPS would be my best bet, but what size? I run a porter cable 890 series 12 amp router and the cnc 60th anniversary shark as well as a old pc...

Strange line when cutting

I have had this issue before, and with suggestions here was able to get rid of the "line" coming up in the model.

But now it is back and I am not sure what I am doing wrong, but it has ruined two very nice pieces of walnut that are now scrap.

Any ideas? i have included my setup as well.

Tony
