Ladies & Gentlemen
I seem to remember a little project on here where someone made a fixture for the lathe where he could insert a bolt/screw and part it off very precisely every time. The head of the bolt/screw was inserted into the chuck first leaving the threaded end sticking out, also the head of the bolt hit a stop that was incorporated into the fixture.
I have a requirement to make about 25 screws and I need them cut to pretty tight tolerances, but lately I have found I have had this necessity for such a tool anyways so I am prepared to invest some time and make the fixture. If anyone could help either remember the past project or could explain their way of doing this I would appreciate the advice.
Many thanks Anthony
