Is it OK to "advertise" some available router time on our CNC
router on the newsgroup? It's sorta on topic--if you call routing
aluminum metalworking.

Well, once you can get away with. There are a couple posters that advertize often, one
I've actually purchased from twice at least, I'll leave the names out. The other one, I
should have purchased from in retrospect, it was a better deal but I passed.

It is a bit of a balancing act. I don't totally understand the dynamics of who can spam
and who can not. Posting some real on topic content before you offer something to sell
goes over a lot better than just jumping in with a sales pitch.

Name seems familiar, amc regular?

The number of people who advertise fake sneakers made in China here, I
don't think anyone will mind if you advertise something
metalwork-related :-).

No one ever asks if it's acceptable to advertise their sneakers.

It would help if you posted some links to pictures of work that you
have done and maybe a bit about what kind of CNC router it is. Fixed
gantry, moveable table? 3 axis? 5 axis? Stepper motors? DC
servos? AC servos? Max working size.?

Only if you use large quantities of wire brushes.

I gotta admit, I prefer politics to sneakers. American politics are good
for a laugh sometimes. Sneakers are not.

If the number of political posts was as low as the number of sneaker
posts, I'd agree with you.

I love watching Prime Minister's Questions on C-Span 1. That is entertaining!

So if you were cleaning the flame tube in a wash system tank, what sort of brush would you
use to get the calcium off it?

I've heard that soda blast works great too but I'm not sure I can get boss to cut loose
with money for that.

On the Outside of the tube where the solution is? Get a barrel of
CLR (or the acid they use) and loosen it up before you try blasting or
mechanical cleaning. Work smarter, not harder.

Just make sure it's compatible with the metals - they get mad when
you dissolve the equipment...
