| jcs0001:
I didn't want to post this till it worked. Following the plans put on the net by another forum member (Norman Leonard) I started making parts about a month ago. It is now finished and although I haven't done any threading with it yet it seems to work as planned :med: A couple of resources: Norman's Plans and information: http://www.projectsinmetal.com/normans-reverse-tumbler-plans-for-a-grizzly-g0602-10x22-lathe/ Dennis Atwood modifications: http://www.dennisatwood.com/projects/tumbler-reverse-for-10x22-lathe/ I used two Acetyl, module 1.50, 30 teeth gears. Part #: A 1M 2MYZ15030 from Stock Drive Products. Dennis was kind enough to provide me with the part number. Some changes were made: - kept the change lever and lock mechanism inside the case. - silver soldered the lever to the carrier plate after milling a "lap" joint - I don't have a welder and there was little room for bolts. - moved the assembly around to the right (counter clockwise) from where Norman placed his. And a couple of photos: One of the real benefits is that I can now leave the drive train in neutral when it isn't needed. Plus I can make left hand threads (will likely never need one again now that I can do it). Norm - thanks for creating these plans - I would not have figured out how to do it without your help. John. |
