Hi
I was talking about countersinks in this thread
http://madmodder.net/index.php?topic=4531.30
saves saying the same thing twice. :)

I used to be confused, now I just don't know.

Roy,

A very nice project you have going there.

It's nice to see how you start off with a basic unit, then add bits n' bobs when either the need arises or you feel like making something.

I have no need for such a unit, as I have all little bits of holding tooling that allow me to do it all on my surface grinder, but I am sure, that if I couldn't go that way, I would be making one of these instead.


Nice ones.

I don't have such wide angle tool and so thought that the 2 countersinks are machined on the lathe. If I remember correctly, they're 120 degree. I'll go find one. Hope it can be used on my Sherline mill.

Regards,
Wong

xo18thfa,
I know this is an old thread, but would an older mouse ball work for the pivot? It's steel cored and has a rubber jacket. Maybe best of both worlds?

Hi Chuck:  I did not build this table, so I can't really answer that.  I'd go with the hard plastic as Mr hall specifies.

Roy:  How did you do your graduated handwheels?  I did mine on the lathe with a paper tape rapped around the chuck and a "V" tool turned sideways.
