Hi
I read all the posts about this gadget and always fancied making one but never did.
the latest issue of Model Engineers Workshop had an article about them so I decided to have a go.



the back


flipped up


I changed the back slightly to a bar that fits straight into my QCTP to cut down on overhang.

And blow me it really works :D :D

It's one thing to watch a video and quite another to watch your own one cutting then sliding back to the start.

bloody brilliant idea!

DaveH:
Roy,

Looks good :clap: and like you say it works :thumbup: Well made :D

Was it your design or bit of this and that?

Just to give me an idea of the size - What size is the HSS tool bit?

It is a really clever idea.

wheeltapper:
Its not my design, various types have been around on here for some time, I just slightly modded the version in MEW.

the tool is 8mm sq, length of the moving section is 55mm and the angle base is 50 mm.

DaveH:
Thanks Roy,

I really fancy one of these - time I had a go.
