Hi all,

While I am waiting for the belt and pulleys to arrive I made the rear headstock support

Machined a piece of 10mm plate square and did a cutout in one side.



Made a half moon cutout at the top to go around the gear change lever.



The two pieces that will make up the support.



Drilling the holes to bolt the two together.





Set up the smaller piece and cut a chamfer at the outer top.





Drilled the holes to bolt it to the headstock, and a large hole for the cables to pass through.



And fitted to the lathe.  At the bottom it bolts to the heavy channel the lathe bed is bolted to.







Cheers
Abraham,
