Looks like it's going to be a great example of a 'What I had to hand' tool. I'm trying to get my head around that T slot mount on your lathe. Is it part of the bed, saddle, or a separate piece of metal? |

Andrew: Looks like a very handy tool. I'm looking forward to seeing how it works for you, John. |

Oooo, Now you just made me add this to my make it one day list. The fact that you are modifying the design to work on your lathe makes it feasible for me as my playpen is minuscule and space is at a premium. For the most part, if it won't store under something or hang off the wall someplace it won't fit. AND I'm running out of wall too. Waiting to see the end product and thanks for the build log.

Hi Andrew, That looks promising, from other postings of yours, it will come out well. I like the multifunction usage (using existing sources), I try to make my bits with multi use in mind, saves materials and space, sometimes even time... Will follow this project.... |

I think Tony from the lathes website has one. http://www.lathes.co.uk/cromwell/index.html |
