Is a Cheap CNC Machine Worth Your $ ?… Haas VF0 

Thanks for the support and comment. 🙏

Yes you able to drip feed

Thanks for the info 🙏

Thanks for the support 🙏

I really would like to know how it compares to Zep Citrus Degreaser cleaner@@prestigemanufacturing2611 I've watched that stuff melt oils off, seconds after spray.

Thanks man 🙏

🙏

Definitely man. I’ve used everything you can think of and if you use a different oven cleaner, it doesn’t work as good as the one that I put in the link because it’s not as strong.

I use Schaefers citrus cleaner

Dang!!! What a shame it went to scrap. Unfortunately that happens to a lot of good machinery. Companies make their money off them and throw them away.

@@prestigemanufacturing2611 that’s exactly what he said. That machine made us a lot of money and it’s time to go. They had it since new

@@jimhimesjrsad

Now I'm crying! 😢 I need ANY machine right now.

Hot bought one and I'm paying for storage at the moment if it was free I definitely would have put it in storage

Thanks for the advice !

Nice!!

Thanks 🙏

Those late 80's early 90's first gen machines with the plastic/ fiberglass enclosures are crazy looking. Haas has come a long ways. I know of one that's probably still in operation today in Mountain View, CA at a shop that's full of a bunch of Shizouka Bandits as well. I guess if they're working, don't mess with them? 🤣

Nice!

We bought one from a reseller for really cheap they thought the main board was fried, but it turned out to be a 5$ wire

@@a-a-ron8437 that’s a major score!

Thanks 🙏

Thanks for the info

Z0 on a haas is tool change height. there is 4 inches and change above that to retract the tool from the umbrella.

Thanks 🙏 I designed and built the whole kit. I did a full axle swap. It’s not all the way done yet. It has the stock V8 in it. It just sounds like a diesel because I haven’t tightened the headers back down yet lol 😂

Thanks! 🙏

🙏

Definitely! Thanks for the support I really appreciate it 🙏

Also, what do you think about the new style of thumbnail? Was it more eye-catching than the others? Or should I go back to the way I was making them?

@@prestigemanufacturing2611 as someone that uploads video myself i never cracked the code for thumbnails, some say text, some say colors cause clicks. however the trash bags and the machine might be enough to suck a viewer in if they weren't subbed already.

@@shitmyhellcatsays thanks for the feedback!

Makes me glad to see a Haas machine, I've been working with one since 4 Years now

I’m using water out of the hose 💧

@@prestigemanufacturing2611 😮

Definitely

Definitely

oven cleaner is not friendly to aluminum.

yes that's true but 99% of rims have a clearcoat/coating of some sort so as long as you don't burn through that should be good @@DieselRamcharger

Thanks for the support 🙏

Thanks

Thanks for the feedback and your support. I really appreciate it.

@@prestigemanufacturing2611 what is the specs on that machine. Max soindle rpm and rapids?

@@tdg911 it’s 10,000 rpm. Not sure the max speeds

I’m not sure that’s correct lol

Thank you 🙏

I use a rotary phase converter. You can find them on eBay.

Nice!

Awesome!! I appreciate the view and support 🙏

I like Fadal mills and Okuma lathes

@@prestigemanufacturing2611 Thanks sir, any specific model you could recommend me??

Can't go wrong with a Mazak. The only caveat is if you're getting an older model (non "smooth" control) is to make sure it has EIA if you plan on using CAM software to program, otherwise their conversational programming at the control is hands down the best on the market.

@@CNCMatrix Any specific model you would recommend me? Obviously we intend to use Fusion 360 or Mastercam as our software. I want to buy a lathe and a machining center, so any advice you can give me is very welcomed.

@@fdkfskfkvmk441254741 Depends on the type of work you plan on doing and the size of the parts.

😂

I totally did it 😂😂

I’m not a haas fan either but it does look like it holds good tolerance.

Thanks for the support 👍

*Here's what you don't get.* *_"Things that YOU do not know" are not secrets... they are things that YOU do not know._* _If I told you you I bought a Mille Fleur for a quarter of what they cost..._ it is incumbent ON YOU to know the specifications. Not on me to tell you.

@@m4rvinmartian are you OK? I'm saying I'm interested, but don't know much about the north American second hand market for used production machines. And it honestly has limited use in my day to day life. And it doesn't seem like it, but if YOU wish to inform, then inform. If you want engagement on your video about making a good deal? then if it's a quarter of $4000 and a week of labor, then it's not a great deal, but if it's a quarter of $20k and a week of labor, then it does seem like a good deal. So you can be upset that I'd like to hear prices when I'm asked if it's a good deal in a video, if that's who you want to be. I just want this channel to do well, and talking about these things, such as prices, helps the channel. Because more information is a benefit to all. So it's a fair request. Just as ignoring the request is fair, it's his content after all.

Never heard of it

Depends on the options but not cheap

I do

100

I have shipped machinery all over the world 🌎

@@prestigemanufacturing2611 good to know.

Email me

Prestigemanufacturingky@gmail.com

I really have to research to find them this cheap and I don’t always find them

Do you have any sites you recommend? @@prestigemanufacturing2611

Search CNC machining on RU-vid. The possibilities are endless 🤑

I would have fixed it myself

If it didn’t run, I’d still have to make it run, so why not clean it so I don’t get dirty while I’m doing it?

@@prestigemanufacturing2611 usualy fixing things makes more mess, so why not clean it after it works. of course you need to clean all the loose chips and gunk from some areas but no need to polish before testing it... you don't wash a car before taking it on a test drive?

It's no fun working on dirty machines especially around the chips it also makes a better presentation of the machine when unwrapping

yeah clean it while its powered up! shmart!

You tell me 🤷🏻‍♂️

He didn't go in person to look at it. He looked at two pictures and purchased off the internet.

@@Vankel83 I’m pretty sure everyone knows “what” he did, it was the choice of verbiage that was in question.

I’ve never owed a brand new one to compare but I’ve heard people having issues with new ones.

@@prestigemanufacturing2611 I handed my CL-1 back to the finance company. Have a nakamura now and would never look back, best machine

@@HudsonLighting Sounds like you defaulted on an agreement...

Trust me, they are.

Thanks I definitely will

This guy is like a kid with a new toy so he's excited, not he's not thinking right, as he's talking

sick...

Let’s just say it was a good deal 😂

Nice!

I do. lol check out my DIY Hydraulic press brake video

I think they meant with a cnc, i could be wrong @@prestigemanufacturing2611

Thanks for the language critique. I’m glad that’s what you got out of the video. Lol.

Your absolutely correct, that’s exactly why I said water displacement in the video right when I was spraying it lol

WD40 was created in san diego cifornia as a water displacing formula to keep the salt air moisture from machinery and aerospace tooling. It was water diplacement formula 40 as his 40th attempt making the formula, your welcome.
