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

Thanks for sharing these.  I guess I'll have to add the set-over centre to my "TO-DO" list now.... thanks :P

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.
