Too lazy to look from whom the threads originated. IIRC Gunner, Iggy and TMT. Nothing new. Nick I was going to disagree with #3 until I read the thread. Bad drift. The replica of the turtle is close enough to on topic for me. It does have some historical metalworking content: "http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Turtle_(submarine)" Not sure that link formated properly so: http://tinyurl.com/2ckhre I hope I didn't hurt my rep asking about how to set a compound ;) That last suggestion was how to setup offset centers wasn't it? Since I don't have a taper attachment on the lathe I am repairing, I will likely have to resort to shifting the tailstock or making an adaptor to offset centers to turn longer than compound length items. The sine bar between centers has the same problem with being off center line as using a master part and indicating. If the sine bar between centers isn't perpendicular to the ways, the same sort of error is introduced. The darn lip seal I need to make my varidrive work is on 7 week back order. I have things I want to make and need my lathe. Wes |

I hope I didn't hurt my rep asking about how to set a compound ;) No, not at all! The difference is, that you are asking questions, learn and are making progress. Completely different game. And I also learned something from that. That's how it should be at RCM. That last suggestion was how to setup offset centers wasn't it? Â*Since I don't have a taper attachment on the lathe I am repairing, I will likely have to resort to shifting the tailstock or making an adaptor to offset centers to turn longer than compound length items. You wanted to offset the centers? If you have a boring head that fits into your tailstock, you can play nice tricks with that. The sine bar between centers has the same problem with being off center line as using a master part and indicating. Â*If the sine bar between centers isn't perpendicular to the ways, the same sort of error is introduced. You should check with a zero degree setting (and align the tailstock) before setting the desired angle. Or adjust the tailstock with one of the many ways. But be aware, depending how bad or good the tailstock is aligned from the factory, extending or retracting the quill will introduce a new error. So when you align it, remember how far the tailstock's quill stuck out! Nick |

Well, I'm glad to see somebody is paying attention, and keeping track. Danke schoen, Herr Oberfuehrer! |
