I am going to borrow shamelessly steal the thumbscrew idea! I also have an idea about a hinge, but that may hinder placement later on, so jury still out. |

A couple more pictures of the same late. My hi-tech answer to cross slide DRO. It works surprisingly well. Can you see what the problem is here? And I don't mean all the clutter. Dave. |

Henning, I used hinges on my gear cover as shown here: The letters refer to some accompanying text on my website, but I sawed up a cheap door hinge and attached the results at E and E, with the other parts attached to the lathe. The hinges are lift-off, and the pin in the lower one is longer than in the upper one, to help me to replace the cover if I have removed it completely. A toggle clip (like the ones on some toolboxes) at F fastens on to a lug on top of the headstock, to hold the cover closed. :D It seems I can embed pictures direct from my website without the bother of PhotoBucket. :D I didn't know that until I tried it.
