Finding tool centre height on a lathe

<< < (2/8) > >>

NickG:
Some great ideas in there that I will definitely be using! Must get QCTP too!

Cheers Bogs.

John Stevenson:
I usually squint at it, mumble a few curses, invoke ear of bat, tongue of newt and set it  by eye.

Anything requiring  a spot on centre job usually requires sacrificing a virgin but doe to the shortage around Nottingham I'm still squinting.

John,

The old mumbo jumbo works for me sometimes, but when you have to describe something, I daren't write down all the quick fixes, as you get the magic circle on your back in double quick time, and the safety nannies even quicker.

NickG:
John,

Sorry for  :offtopic: , but why does the boring bar have a -ve top rake?

Thanks,

Nick

Spen50:
I made a little tool for that too.
