Hello. I'd like to show you some helpful gadgets that I made recently. A backstop for my lathe,regarding H.Hall's plans, http://homews.co.uk/page92.html a set over tailstock center from Hemingway Kits http://www.hemingwaykits.com/acatalog/Set_over_Centre.html, and a lever operated drilling head for the tailstock.It makes it much easier to get rid of the swarf while drilling small holes. I even made this morse taper myself,using my new fabricated set over center.It worked pretty good. Today I started a new project in which this drilling head will be of good use. You can say,one thing leads to another. Thank You for watching. Cheers,Ralph |

Nice tools, Ralph :thumbup: . I really must make a lever-operated drill chuck, and a proper backstop like yours to replace the primitive one I use. I make do with a boring head fitted with a cylindrically shanked centre for off-setting the tailstock; happily, my tailstock and the spindle in my miller are both 2MT. Andy |
