| Dividing head for the shaper |

Crikey, my DH weighs that much, can't imagine spinning that in the lathe .... or getting it in there to start with :bugeye: |

I have to say that is machine work at its best, welding on to chuck jaws, just to fit a part in the chuck which doesn't fit. It looks great, I love to see the power of blue chips, running coolant, and a nice, smooth finish. I'm looking forward to the rest of this, I was just considering making a dividing attachment for my own shaper although I suspect it's smaller than yours. Mine's a seven inch Atlas, that chunk of steel would barely fit on the table, far less be machinable on it. How big is the shaper you are using? Can't wait to see the rest of the log. Mad Jack :whip: |

Er du syk, mann? I didn't realize the size of the piece until I saw your hand holding the garden hose for the coolant. :jaw: |

It must be great to have the machines capable of taking big work like that. Andy |
