A bit more progress :dremel:

The main bearing caps ,, a bit of ally bar was milled up to the required width and thickness ,but longer than needed and a centre point marked on each end for the radius .

Then the ends were milled to form the flat section.

The bar was mounted on the R/T and clocked into the pre marked points ,,, same as method as with the 4 jaw ,just vertical ,centre fitted to mill spindle and R/T clocked into spindle .
the rad was milled on each end .

The bar was held vertical in a tool makers vice , then held in the mill vice .

Fined the centre

then the edge

Working from there move in the correct distance for the first hole , and using a slot drill , mill a flat .

centre drill

and drill

move to the other hole using the dials to get the position and repeat .

do same to other end of the bar ,, then cut the caps off the stock leaving some to machine up .

Then mill to size.

Now the main bearing supports need milling up ,, i tilted the bed of the mill to do this , but you could just mount it in the vice at the correct angle .

Then the holes were drilled and taped for the cap screws wile still in this position ,,, after finding the centre line and working from this point .

Thats all for now lads

Bogstandard:
You are definitely making it look too easy Rob.

Next thing you know there will be dozens of these being made. So when you cut the gears, make up some long bar lengths, and cut up extra sets for selling on to keep everyone happy.

Very nice setups and explanations BTW.
