Thanks for having us all along for the watch. I know that I learned a bunch and I am sure others did as well. This should give you a new level of satisfaction when you are machining and moving between operations and machines. Very well done John.  :ddb: :ddb: :ddb:

Cheers  :beer:

Thanks again John for your excellent tutorial.  I am gathering the necessary "stuff" (mostly gumption needed) to make one of those.

As mentioned above, I was thinking about welding 2 pieces together to fit my flanged spindle but EUREKA!  Look what I found in my junk box today.  I'd forgotten all about it.  It's a connector shaft off of one of those steerable Vermeer (or Burkeen) horizontal drilling machines.  I saw it lying beside the hiway a few years ago and stopped to pick it up.  I have cut several chunks off it to make various bits of tooling and it machines well.  The flange OD on my lathe is a bit less than the inner edge of the bolt holes so it should do great!

Dear Santa, will you bottle up some Bogs Gumption™ and leave it under the tree for me?;)
