Lathe door interlock

Now that would be funny......LOL.

I did a search for tool pre-setter and came across this.....

Somewhere I came across BottleBob's site and saw this very nicely made copy of the SPI "Zero-It" indicator sweeper ]

I didn't know my site addresses would word wrap or I would have TinyURL'em.

Now that was cool. He was really skewered but good. The doctor was pushing on the rod, or whatever, and when it suddenly let go I about jumped out of my chair. I was thinking this guy isn't going to survive this without being permanently disfigured. But jeeze, two days later and he looked like nothing had happened.

Tom:

Well, at least he left my name in. LOL

Once you put something online, it's public property.

On our Haas VF-6 mill, you can go to the option screen that says Door Hold Override (I think it's option 51), and change it from the default OFF, to ON. And the door interlock is disabled until the machine is restarted. It's part of the normal startup procedure everyone in our shop uses.

I was amazed at how good he looked. Especially around his eye and nose. The X-ray showed lots of damge around his eye socket.

But if you notice, he was still moving his mouth and tongue real slow and tentative. That had to hurt. Ooof.

I see he even had a picture of Don's truck, (Who runs the Practical Machinist board) Lot's of "familiar" pictures..
