Manxmodder:
Another advantage of clamping flat to a faceplate is that it tends to reduce any resonant frequency being set up in the component itself. This method of mounting provides a damping effect and helps to further reduce the likelihood of chatter marks in a critical bore where conditions are fairly borderline to begin with whereas the relatively small contact area of a 4 jaw doesn't provide near as much damping effect.

Nice job so far Zadig  :clap: :clap:.....OZ.

Thanks OZ. Nice point about the damping.

Cheers Ginger.

The suds was a bit gruesome, I used some neat cutting oil and a brush in the end.












awemawson:
Very nice.  :bow:

Are you going to black it?
Zadig:
No I didn't Andrew, I'll leave that upto the guy himself. It's his field, restoration, and he will have far more idea than I have about these things. It would have looked good though.

BTW, I like your idea of Sterling board for flooring. My concrete floor was put down in the pouring rain and powders up something terrible. I've been giving it some thought over the years but never gave OSB a thought. Just wanted to show my appreciation and say thanks.
