  I have the same kick punch and I slam that sucker HARD. It's definitely a kick punch and not a step-up punch or whatever. Did you find the same thing to be true? Have you broken any dies yet?

  @Likeaudio21 сағат бұрын

  I cut a lot of soft metals. Sometimes it's hard kick like on an 0.080 aluminum. I do not punch any steel. I have not broken dies. Hope the machine brings you as much joy as mine does. It's been a dream to own.

  Yeah that'd have to be cast to get that geometry, a similar effect could be achieved with a slot cut into the clamp body and a bolt in the lil swivel, but it wouldn't be as good. Load wouldn't be symmetrical, and it'd get stuck more often... Now if you can cast the things!

  Yeah it seems about right and how they did it. It's much more complex than meets the eye.

• 
  @keatoncampbell82019 күн бұрын

  Very clever design! I bet you could simplify them when scaling them. Could probably knock one out in 10 operations between the lathe and mill, assuming you have a rotary table, boring head, and time to kill. Funny thing is the half cylinder requires about the same work as the main clamp

• 
  @Likeaudio19 күн бұрын

  I admire that you look at a part and gauge its complexity by how many operations you could make it in. I want your brain. The little pivot is unique. It has some little tabs inside that get staked in... It's like it was forged that way...

  Well, this is quite the suprise because, I own that console. I bought it as a rescue in NY from a second owner who was storing an obscene amount of mostly damaged broadcasing equipment before it was deemed to be tossed or perhaps sold to someone else. I shipped it to AZ where It has been dormant for the 16 years that I've had it. I have since racked modules and pres (m600 wow) and with litterally miles of cabling I haven't been able to finish restoring it. It was to be the main control room console in my studio. It had some water damage but nothing too bad. I dismantled almost everything and started cleaning. Long story short about 15% into the restoration the reality of understanding that the team of talent that originally set such a piece of equipment into motion was of astronomical proportion and that myself, even with some help, getting it back to even 60% was and is a long shot. As you see from the documentation, there is SO MUCH involved with this console. Something like, 30+ elco connectors. Something like 10 psu. Four or five different types. I have maybe 70% of what I started with left. I had to let go of some of the millitary telephone 1/4 patchbays. I've often thought building a few sidecars or just parting it out but couldn't let myself do that. I'd like to restore it to a basic split in line/tape send/ret console for music production. Also my father was employed by ABC for many years so, they fed us. Looks like there's other ST series owners! Next obviously I have to ask, would you be willing to sell or loan to copy etc.. How amazing is THAT! I honestly never thought I would see documentation on this console. Wild and very cool. Message me and I'll take some picks etc. We can check serial numbers to make sure too.
