My bishop wand packers grip cracked my mistake, after going through hell with bishop and the warranty. I picked up the Q2 and noticed the motor is way weaker than my packer and the cam on the Q2 is horrible. So I modded my Q2 I got the new program one with the plastic gate around the motor after further research I’ve realized the at the bishops motor fits in the gate of the Q2 then realized the bishop cam is too big for the new program Q2 after shaving the gate a little and grinding alittle off the sides of the gate I wire souldered the motor, put it in the gate, and used a xnet cam and BOom! I now have a cheap machine body I can get anytime if somethings happens I can just swap the whole motor assembly and rca.i also now have easier access to cams when they need replaced instead of dealing with bishops Bs now my Q2 hits just like my packer won’t be a fool just paying for the name no more
What cams fit in it and what do you recommend for lining I keep hearing 4.5 or 5mm is the best for lining but on a coil machine it’s 2.5mm idk I don’t get it but I want a good lining machine so sorry for rambling. What cam do you recommend for lining
Would love a video of you actually changing the cam. Cnc sells replacements on their site specifically for this machine but i cant find a video of actually changing them
@@allidoisme5892 CNC stroke are the same lol only difference is the plunger bar....measure it with calipers and you'll see im right....put the 3.5 with the plunger up next to the 4.0 with the plunger...the plunger is just longer and that's needle protrusion not stroke....and the bishop fantom cam fits right on with no modifications
@@allidoisme5892 I deleted the original comment cause I literally posted word for word what I did up a few lines...I'll type it again for you though ("I have the "newly programmed CNC q2" and put the bishop fantom 4.2 cam on it and it fit with no alterations") and then I said the 3,3.5,n 4mm stroke cams are all the same stroke just different length plungers....so your not increasing your stroke at all just the needle protrusion.....trying to explain that to ya but idk if your not understanding or if your wanting to argue or what but if I have to I'll post a video of it on my channel as well.was literally trying to help ya not waste money on a garbage cam that u already have when if u want a longer plunger bar u can get them for about a buck 50 on Amazon and bend it to original one just a little longer....sushink has a video explains how there cams are all the same just different length plungers so if you want a longer stroke u have to us a bishop cam like in the video or u have to us a xnet cam.......🤔
@@allidoisme5892 no no no brother multiple ppl have videos how there cams all have longer plungers....where the hole is at on the cam bearing is how u measure the "stroke" length.....try it with calipers.....then measure 3 or 4 other 4mm stroke cams....I'll wait.....im not being shady at all im tryin to tell ya CNC cams are needle protrusion not stroke length....

Hey man did you have to cut any metal to get your cam to fit in there ? And what did u do with the plastic holding the motor in place?
What stroke is that?
Did you have to modify anything?
No jus took the old cam out put the new one in with the original drive bar from the the old cam
Is that the 4.2
Would the bishop fantom 4.2 cam extra long work ?
Is tfar the 42
Bought a cam but it didn't come with the plunger? Know where to find one? Not sure if it was supposed to come with it but mine didn't.
