Missing dimensions on that sketch by the look of it. No dimension of where the triangle is down the left side.

That and I take it the pitch between the holes is not important as they aren't referenced to each other.

I’m the main machinist always struggle to keep the coolant clean always going off so hopefully this skimmer may help

Do you have a filter on the coolant return? Bits of swarf in the coolant rusting doesn't help.

I do yes, all be it not the best.

But I only machine ally, so not rust there. The coolant compartment on my machine being 25 years old is showing signs of rust. I did paint with hammerite but that didn't last long before coming off
 
Mines lovely and blue now after cleaning the machine down today!

Just wish we had some interesting jobs in

I wish we had some different jobs in. I'm sick of these bloody castings now.
We've no filter paper in the coolant tank and everything is covered in a layer of iron paste that's rusting. The coolant return channel was clogged with it yesterday, I had to chisel it out!

Could you do any engraving for me on the side?

I’d love to! but we’ve never done any engraving unfortunately so I doubt there’s any tools knocking around to even attempt it

I's n j's, kin el I've not done that for a long time. Heidenhain lingo is so much easier to program I'd be fucked playing in ISO again [emoji16]
 
I learnt fanuc at college and that’s gone out the window! Never used it at work

do you guys not just use a cam program for coding mainly?

No mate, 2 bit half arsed operation here. I get a drawing and usually a s**t fabrication and I'm left to it. The older machines are worse because they don't hold as many programs in memory so they get deleted. I've told them to get a shitty laptop to use for backing up the programs but we're still programming jobs we've programmed good knows how many times before.

Lol maybe. Been doing it a while now so I'm pretty good at making it so what I want. Shame I can't say the same about the day shift, I usually change what he's programmed [emoji23]

Do you fancy doing some engraving for me?
I've got cad drawing, cam file and gcode.
 
That's cool. If if had to sit at a desk doing cad stuff I'd want to be programming for a machine like that.
We stick to simple stuff:
