TS's new toy

<< < (5/5)

David,

Good find. That is exactly the same one as I have on my mill.

With ref to size, it is a little on the large size, but what the hell, as long as the machine is still stable and not liable to fall on you, anything goes. What will do a lot, will do a little.

You don't really need to worry about the rotating bases, they usually just end up lost in the workshop somewhere, never to see the light of day again. I would let you have mine, but I think they are machined as a matching pair, so fitting it might cause you more problems than it is worth.

Good find David

A little extra weight never hurt, helps to damp down the vibration:- so the actress said to the Bishop  :lol:

That's great I was starting to get it set in my mind that it would be no good without the pivoting base, just goes to show how inexperienced I am.

Just got to get a decent collet chuck etc now and I'll be all set for the moment....roll on Harrogate!
