Some time ago I bought a dividing head which had a extra  coupling that I did not understand. I did some research and found out it is meant to mount a gear, which could be driven by a gear-train attached to the x-feed of a mill.
Recently I picked up a set of gears with mounting-accessories which I thought might be for such a dividing head and could be made to fit on mine. Am I correct? (see pictures)
Could anyone enlighten me on the use of such a contraption, other than milling spirals? Also, could this be usefull on a Bridgeport? (I also have the "angle head for the bp if that would be needed)
Any links to information about this is greatly appreciated.

These are the teeth counts on the different gears:
24(*2), 25, 26, 28(*2), 30, 32, 40, 44, 48, 56, 56 with stub, 64, 72, 80, 86, 88, 100, 127.

Thanks very much,
Peter

Your set is incomplete. It should come with a slide rule, a white lab coat, a pot of brylcreem and a pair of horn-rimmed specs.
