Add Edge Finders to Shopping List

Yesterday, I could only find a broken edge finder in the “Bridgeport” cabinet. So we should add that to the machine shop shopping list. Perhaps, we should add three or four or even a half dozen to the PO as they are easy to break with a wrong move of the bed.

Person that broke it notified MS the on another thread. I always bought 3 at a time, but at $14m may as well buy 6. Been added to @nicksilva’s list

nick sulva - new member to dms so im not sure if this is the right area to ask quick question…are you gong to have any machine shop classes in the near future. thank you

The only that I will personally be doing is the two HAAS class. Both milll and lathe classes have been scheduled by others but may not be showing on the calendar yet

thank you…id be interested in the hauus class if theres openings

there should be room in both.

my son and i signed up for both.

From where do you buy these? I need to buy one for personal use.

the last ones I ordered were from MSC Direct.
however, they are a common Amazon and ebay item.
I have also purchased at CDC surplus.

.As Nick said, multiple places we usually just toss it in with other order. You looking for you Sherline? You’ll need 3/8th collet which is pushing it it that spindle, see if smaller size available.
