I got to finish up the 5-axis vice for the truck project (see previous post) today!
I initially had some issues with the VF2 where the probing system would keep giving me "Error Probe Open 1092" when trying to probe each of my tools. Thankfully it was a quick fix by replacing the batteries and moving aside some cables that blocked the main unit from reading the tool probe.
I'm finishing the vice on the 5-axis and not the minimill so that it will be true to the machine I plan to use it. If I were to finish it on the smaller mill, it could be slightly off when I put it on the VF1; however, it will be closer to the same position each time since it's finished on the larger.
I'm not going to lie; I was a little nervous about rerunning the 5-axis after the crash earlier this week (see previous posts). I ran everything at 5% rapids and very slow feedrate with my finger hovering the feed stop to catch any potential mistakes. Thankfully, nothing went amiss, and I was able to build my first 5-axis vice without trouble!
