Hi Jim,

I'd try keeping the half-nuts engaged and reversing up - as opposed
to using the threading dial. If the problem persists you must have
some sort of slippage (on keyed gears???). Are you doing non-native
threads (metric on an imperial lathe or vice verca)?

Here's a photo of the problem I'm having:

That's a 1.5" diameter piece of aluminum with five successive test

whatsoever to the top slide or cross slide (other than retracting

it for clearance then setting

back to "zero") and made sure to catch the thread dial on "1" for

every pass. Those five

passes should have all been in the same groove, but it's

offsetting a couple of thous each

pass. It's as if something in the gear train is slipping but I've

checked everything a bunch of

times. I'm really stumped on this one, any ideas would be

appreciated.

Hi Patrice L.,

Good points and well-taken. I am pleased to hear that you
removed the "copyright" from your site - however, as with the
best of intentions, this generates another problem and a
violation of the copyright law - your previous posting of
"copyright" was a also a violation, called theft.

The very issuance of the instrument is a copyright; however
the courts will not hear a case unless it is registered. By
not citing the copyright holder or the original author(s) you
are placing in public domain work in which you might not have
the authority to do so.

Next, has Yahoo released any and all copyrights to the
moderators and/or the original authors save for the logo and
possibly the "look and feel?"

Alternate view - The authors, by posting have gifted their
work as "public domain" in which case the public at-large
have full use of it. However, it does not grant the copyright.

As soon as any commercial benefit is made, the situation is
complicated. Commercial use is sometimes a fine hair to
split under the "Fair Use" principle. Most often restricted
to educational institutions - If one were to copy a document
for a class, a reasonable copying fee is permitted. A charge
greater than this is deemed commercial and would be seen as
unfair and potentially theft.

So while creating a compendium of postings is one of good
intentions, it does have ramifications due to the
ne're-do-wells who benefited from the work of others.

If you elect to otherwise post materials presented by
others, 1) permission is required and 2) full citation to the
copyright owner (saving this, the original author) must be
stated. Next disclosing information from a "members-only"
group (one needs to be a member to post) is not a good idea.

Your good intentions are appreciated, but your decision not
to proceed is likely the best.

Take care,
DBN

1) I will add a reference to the Yahoo group. Not sure why I
did not do it but I see how that may be a good idea.
2) I removed the copyright at the bottom of these pages (a
couple of days ago actually). I had it on all my website.
Never thought to copyrights those for myself.
3) I've removed much of the identification as well as emails
for fear of revealing too much personal information.
4) I've added the adds recently to see if this was something
that could generate revenue to help with the cost of website
and to eventually upgrade so that I could add pictures on there.

Anyway, I am telling you that I wanted to do this to give
back, having received lots of help myself. But you don't know
me and I have no way to prove it to you or others.

I never had anything but good words from the Southbend group
and thought it would be a good idea. Guess not. SO don't
worry, I won't make it.

I'm sorry, but I have to object.

What EXACTLY are you seeking permission to do?

I don't know what copyrights we give up to Yahoo Groups when
we post here, but I wish to retain any rights that I still
have and I don't want anything that I write on your web site.

I wouldn't care as much if you clearly identified on your web
site that the source of your content is the South Bend Lathe
Group, but you haven't done that. There isn't even a link to
the group. You've also stripped almost all information that
could identify the authors of the messages. And you've
prominently displayed your own copyright notices, which imply
that you own the copyrights to stuff that you don't have the
right to copyright.

Finally, you're displaying ads on your site, which means
you've at least considered trying to make money from other
people's writing.

Your web site also "cluttered up" a Google search that I did
the other day with multiple hits that were basically useless.
The answer that I was looking for might have been somewhere
on your site but it would have been difficult to find because
your "database" is more about quantity than quality. Quite
frankly, it's not very much of an improvement over the
group's built-in search function.

If you're wondering why this is an issue with me, it's
because I spent twelve years operating a web site/BBS as a
free public service to promote general aviation, and that
experience was ruined by those who felt that they could take
my work without my permission or without giving me credit as
the source.

I think that if you want to put what you learn here on your
web site, then you need to write it in your own words.

What a lot of hoo-ha about nothing, as the saying goes. 99.99% of the
message on these boards really aren't worth saving, including this entire
thread.

Having a decent search interface, or an index, or perhaps a list of 'best
of' threads would be nice. However, if you were going to do that, you might
as well do what other have done, and call it a book.

As far as who owns copyright, you do for your messages. By posting you
grant Yahoo the right to publish them (with no royalties) or do whatever
they like until you or they delete them. Yahoo doesn't really care (much)
about a 3rd party setting up a database, so long as they don't pretend to be
Yahoo, claim affiliation etc. The copyright & TOS (no, not Star Trek) pages
are linked off the main groups page.

If a poster has a problem with the 3rd party database, then it's between
them. Personally, if you feel that your messages are so valuable that you'd
be willing to fire off C&D letters or start lawsuits, perhaps you should
stop posting. 'rroll99' has exactly 3 messages in my inbox, the one
complaining about copyright, one asking for a book suggestion, and one
saying thanks re the book. Not worth getting excited about. Perhaps I can
sue all the other members of this group for having my copyrighted messages
on their computer systems. You can all sue me in return.

Besides, the whole point is spreading knowledge, and anything on this lists
would be fairly well known anyway. I doubt anything new & earthshattering
would appear on a message board that is mainly "I'm a newbie, how do I..."
posts. There a few websites that have cherrypicked lists for useful
messages, see for a example. It just
mangles the emails a bit.

Look at all the Usenet stuff, it eventually all ended up on Google. Useful?
Maybe.

Go write a book instead. Taking from many is called research, isn't it?
Plus you'll get a pat on the back, and not (as many) accusations of
copyright theft.

Tony
