Darn you Rob, I just need to add this one to the need that tool list. :palm:

I have a South Bend lathe bed and a gear reduction box, dam  :proj: bit's again. :dremel:

I just got done trimming some of my proposed projects, the VW powered snow blower, the electric cab loco. Now I know why I was collecting thos other parts that have been sitting around for several years now.  :lol:

Thanks for that find and posting.

Hehe... Mr Pete sounds like Elvis  :lol:     (well the BBC radio2 "ask Elvis" anywho)


Very cool madmodding style projects..... Has anyone given him a  :poke: in this direction?




I don't think I'll ever have such cutting tools in my workshop? But I still like the innovation  :thumbup:

I have used one of these pantograph shape cutters, and they work well, and will cut out any shape that you make for a pattern.
The pattern goes in the top, and a rubber belt allows the motor driven arm to follow any shape.

This is a great machine for making multiple parts of the same shape.  You can cut stars, ovals, or any other shape.

Some of these machines are quite complex, but the simple ones also work well, and you could easily make one of these.  The only motor you need is the one right above the torch, and is is a slow gear driven motor.  You need a rubber belt to go from the motor to the central axis of the pattern, to hold the knurled motor shaft against the pattern.

I think they call these machines "Manual CNC".   :lol:

Very interesting. It should also work with a plasma cutter. This thread has given me some ideas. Thanks for posting guys.
