LED neon sign replacement

The Challenge I was challenged with finding a way to encorporate the energy savings and flexibility of LED into museum exhibit's at Zimmer Children's Museum. The exhibit is a pinball machine that spans 2 floors of the Zimmer Children's museum. The Solution LED neon Flex was used to replace the old neon tubes. Neon Flex is a LED string embedded in a durable plastic case. It can be snapped into aluminum rails to form any desired shape. At 1.0A per 30 ft of light, it will save a considerable amount of electricity. The difficulty in this setup is reaching the neon tubes. In order to access the top of the pinball machine, I had to rent a 40 ft scaffolding which barely reached the top. Each of the 24 individual glass neon tubes were removed and replaced with LED neon. T The Result After the difficult and strenuous installation the final look of the LED neon is much brighter than the old glass neon tubes. The energy saving is considerable and the maintenance i

ER40 Collet chuck with pass through on a South Bend 9a lathe

Tom Rafalski at 02again (www.02again.com) let me get my hands on a test unit for an ER40 Collet chuck intended for a South Bend 9a lathe. This allows you to use the full through and hold up to 1" of material. The chuck is threaded for the nose of the South Bend. (1 1/2-8) I've been wanting a better system for holding material. My ER40 collets hold a wider range of materials much tighter than my 5c or 3c collets. Currently the best available is a MT3 collet chuck which doesn't allow a through hole. In order to give myself an idea what the runout was I tried to create an ideal runout test given the age of my old South Bend 9a lathe. I recognize the age and accuracy of this old lathe is questionable. In order to remove as much of that as possible, I am going to do a dynamic runout test (running) rather than a static test. There are many factors which play here. I spent some time looking into the ANSI standards. I found the best information
