Re: Orange Clockwork Ticker

I know this is more than a year since the last post, but I noticed the same problem with Vulcan not wanting to sell to end users (now they have a $200 minimum).

I wonder if anyone sorted out the spring specs to pick a replacement from McMaster-Carr?

The specs for the Vulcan spring are:

Re: Output Manager crashes when generating 2D dxf

Ok, same crash on outputting 2D dxf files... I still can't find a way to reproduce the crash consistently, but it is definitely still happening in 4.890 on my Win7 machine.

Attached is my project file with 14 GT2-5 pulleys of various sizes (10T to 150T). If I start by selecting one pulley, then ...

TIA,
