Well now I have finished my Stuart 10V I have gone back to basics and done the jobs that I should have been doing to learn on, a nice bit of simple turning and tapping. What I found is that while doing the engine a tail stock die holder was essential and a tool I really needed. Whilst doing the engine, I borrowed my step fathers one, but have now done my own one. I have finished the 13/16th's and the 1" one, and have the 1.5" adaptor to do yet, the one I am using as a guide is the black one in the last photo for the last part. I hope to have that done before the end of the weekend, time allowing. Anyway, here is a couple of picutres of the work so far, like I said, the black one is just the remaining one to do. As a side project, my little white disk was also finished today, and tested out by the better half with great sucess :) Thanks David :) |

I should point out that the MT2 taper was a bought blank, all I did was bore a hole in the middle of it, so a bit of "cheating" for the taper as I just didn't consider myself ready for that as yet, but next time, who knows ..... Anyway, the last one is now finished and it all fits rather well together, and at last I can return my borrowed one, next project, a tapping stand from my Aldi drill press :thumbup: |
