replacement clutch selector on a clm500 combi lathe/mill
« on: October 05, 2009, 02:08:08 PM »
Disaster the plastic clutch selector broke


so had to make a new one this time from mild steel

drilled out the bulk of it


bored out and knurled


Drilling the screw holes in a dividing head


countersinking the screw holes


and fitted back on and packed with grease


now I can use my machine again ;)

I was gutted when it happened as without it I could not use my machine
not even to make a replacement
but luckily enough my m8 has a full engineering workshop
so was able to go over to his an make a new one

Good repair Andy

I've got a 3 in 1 I may just make myself a spare one of those before I'm left without a machine

Cheers
