John,

This is a bit  :offtopic: , and it refers to your earlier posts about holding work on your vertical slide.

I have just put an answer on another website, and immediately thought of your problem.

If you go down the page on here,

You will come to C3 Milling Sub-Table. I think that might be your solution in the short term. Either mount a bar on the back and hold it in the 'vice', or drill straight into the 'vice' jaws and bolt it on.

Get the plate mounted up first, then use the lathe to square up the plate and drill all the holes. Then it would just be a matter of knocking up a few clamps and fences.

Just a thought.

Excellent Bogs! :thumbup:  I could certainly manage to make something like that! Meanwhile I have coaxed Sally Shaper to take the lugs off the sides of a little machine vice with now fits entirely inside the jaws of the slide.  At least I can now mill small parts without too much hassle.

The Artful Bodger makes a flywheel.





















...Were words necessary?

NO words were not needed. If they were it would have been a 10,000 word post.

I like the way you riveted the flywheel to that shaft.  :thumbup:
