(Not that a tutorial is required for them.

Racks tutorial in production..

Hi John:

  Racks arent finished as yet for the simulation, you can create one for output, but you cannot join it with anything ( in your version anyway ), as yet. Next version will have more ability in using and simulating with racks.

Hi Art,
I can generate a rack but no wheel to go with it - is that where you are at with the rack or is there a little bug?

John

Hi All:

Just a note, I updated the current version to correct a small CNC posting bug, and thenew version has Racks that can be created
on the non-circulars page. ( A rack being quite non-circular.. )

  I havent finished tieing the racks in quite yet, but you can create them and post the models and code for them.

Thx
Art

How do they compare to the ones on your Blidgeport?

The screen allows you to set a tolerance, but I used .1 on the ball bearings and .3 on the roller bearings.
I made the module because I wanted to be able to make 2-3" OD bearings for wood projects and such that
would have the appearance of home built... Probably useless to most, but hey..it was fun.. .

Brilliant, better than the ones fitted in my Bridgeport.

they look really nice,
what sort off tolerance gap do you use between parts ?.

That is really impressive!

Nicely done Art...

Cheers
