I installed a Reverse Osmosis system to top off my vertical machining center coolant tank with almost pure water. I also did some other upgrades and did a quick overview of past upgrades.

Things that happen when machining. Haimer 3D probe repair. Machining some softjaws.
My first week experience with the Haimer 3d Universal Probe did not go great. With in 30 minutes I had broken a tip. A few days later while running a part the probe fell from the BT40 ATC pot and damaged it. I contacted the manufacture and was advised repairs were not possible. No parts other than the probe tips are available.
At this point the expensive indicator was a door stop so I decided to disassemble it. I began assessing the damage, zeroing the indicator via 4 grub screws, and clean up of the rubber boot ring. I used my lathe to check out the probe position and accuracy. It now works just fine.
Fanuc Keysheet Replacement DIY HowTo
Fanuc Keysheet Replacement DIY HowTo
I have a Excel PMC 5V20 Vertical Machining Center with a Fanuc OM control. Keys below the CRT were busted and damaged. After purchasing a new keysheet, I verified fitment. The keysheets for the Fanuc are glued on and need to be removed and reapplied.
After cleaning the front of the Fanuc bezel, I replaced the keysheet and the control looks like brand new. In conclusion, I'm really happy with the results and the PCB board is again protected from coolant and other contaminates.
