Rotary Table Chuck Adaptor Plate

<< < (4/5) > >>

sbwhart:
Ok finished off the small hand wheels I started last night.

Drilled 6*3mm holes 25mm deep enough to make three or four wheels



Took the chuck off the RT with the job still in place and remounted it on the lathe.

Trepanned a shallow recess in the face of the wheel.



Rounded the corners off with a file and gave it a quick polish with emery cloth.

Drilled down the midle 2mm dia

Then parted it off in two stages:- adavanced for a 3mm wide wheel, took the tool down so that the through holes were cleaned up, adavanced tool 1.5mm then parted off this formed a nice boss on the back of the wheel, didn't get a good pic of this.

Thats it job done far easyer on the pocket than buying casting



Have fun
