Talk:Callooh
From Appropedia
Folks,
Great. I talked to a former builder of torch tables, and I'm following his design (direct drive via rack and pinion, driven only on one side) for an industrial duty torch table, 4x8'. I'm ordering parts now, and will have this built hopefully in 2 weeks.

That's probably larger than what you need. Examine my guide rail and see if it's relevant to controlling costs. Linear rails and bearings are found at vxb.com so you can check the price. That would work well for something like a 3x3 table, up to 5x5 or such.
What contacts or experts can we tap to get the details for guaranteeing high accuracy? Do we know how to do it? Rack and pinion like in my design has theoretical 2/1000 inch accuracy, but the issue would be keeping the router down. My design relies on gravity, as it's just a torch.
http://www.stdsteel.com/ has rack for $24 for 6 feet, plus shipping, minimum order of $50.

Just thought I'd mention that this won't be understandable to people without a good grasp of Bahasa Geek. It's not understandable to me (I know very little about electronics). --Chriswaterguy · talk
- True. But it isn't intended for that at the moment. At some point this page will probably transform into a Human friendly document describing the process of building a Callooh, but until then I'd rather put effort into constructing the Callooh than into translating the page from Bahasa Geek to Bahasa Human. Perhaps somebody should make a {{Geek alert}} template... (Love using the term "Bahasa" in that way btw!) --Spm 03:30, 7 March 2008 (PST)
- {{Geek alert}} - I like that! What should it say? I've had a first stab at it. --Chriswaterguy · talk 06:40, 8 March 2008 (PST)
