| Gerhard Olivier:
Thank chaps Rounding the material was an idea I read in a book some time? I tried to find the referance again to put in here but cant remember what book it was. The writer put a round bar through the hole and then used the vice to round around the bore leaving a piece flat to use as a ossilating cylinder. (instead of using casting?) Hope to do a bit of turning for this poject this weekend. Gerhard |
| Gerhard Olivier:
Took some of the bar used as the spacers as it had the exact right thickness. This is to make the spacers. That is the six spacers done. Then 16 mm bar for the threaded bits. Then Is set up to check. After cutting the 8mm part of the edges I drilled 3 to 8mm (clearance for m8 thread) and drilled 3 to 6.8mm for threading M8 and cut the non-threaded one for a flat surface Gerhard |
