1)Bridgeport Series I & II Milling Machines. Who doesn't like being able to mill a 1/4 in of aluminum with one pass, or be able to do .0005 accuracy? (Sighs, gets dreamy look in eye)

My Favorite tool is our shop bot which is actually a cnc miller.
I haven't found a use for it on our robot but it is fun to make a name tag or a door sign with. I will find a use for it eventually. |

tool
1. Hammer
2. Cordless Drill and Pneumatic Drill 3. Titanium Drill bits 4. Dremel 5. Impact Wrench (for when you just can't ratchet anymore) 6. Anything else that can function as a hammer.. textbook, edu-bot, etc. 3/8 wrench and socket have seen a lot of use too. We have a CNC mill, but it was easier to draw a diagram with measurments and send it home with one of the guys on the team.. the next day we'd have the part, thanks to the huge bearing factory in our town. |

My favourite tool has to be an 18 volt mastercraft drill... When our staff advisor leaves the room, and turns off the power (so that we can't kill ourselves while he's gone), Out comes the drill with a 1" socket on the end, and we can use it to run the mill, lathes, bandsaw, drilling machine, and pretty much anything else that runs off 120/220 Volts. Believe it or not, it works just as well as running the machines off AC, except it's a little slower, and burns through batteries like mad...

Probably Alan wrenches and our ratchet set..... I mean, we're using Bosch extruded aluminum, plus all of our bolting we're doing (no major machining capability this year
). |
