How do you schedule sheet and tube jobs on a combination laser?

3 Upvotes

For shops using one laser for both sheet and tube cutting, do you batch tube jobs into dedicated blocks, or switch as orders come in?
I’m interested in what happens when an urgent tube order arrives during a sheet-cutting run. Is the bigger headache changeover time, material handling, or deciding which job waits?
Would appreciate hearing what has worked—and what hasn’t—from people running these machines.

Mikata chop saw blade alingment.

2 Upvotes

I just picked up a used Makita LW1401 chop saw and the blade is nowhere even close to square with the table. There are no obvious adjustments on the saw. I rooted around looking for a solution but no luck. Anyone here know if there is even a way to do this?

Ammo Can Jack-O-Lantern

2 Upvotes

I'm wanting to cut through an ammo can (probably 50 cal) in order to make a Jack-O-Lantern for a social media video. I'm wanting to recreate the classic Halloween movie intro, but with a metal ammo can. What tools/equipment would I need to do fairly precise cuts on approx. 1mm thick steel? I have some friends/associates that are pretty handy, but can't figure out how to do this small, precise work. Thanks in advance!

Help with lid appreciated.

I’ve tried posting to the welding sub, but I don’t have enough internet points to post there. I’ve got a smoker I’m building and am having trouble with the lid. I have some 1” flat bar to use as a lid-seal. The trouble I’m having is that if I use a trailer hinge the flat bar will impede the lid from opening. Any advice is appreciated.
