I was digging through my collection of stuff and my eye set upon a rotary table with an X/Y integrated into it, with a square plate full of threaded holes. Doesn't come off, it's built into the table.
Then a thought happened, I could build an addon for my Monarch 12CK lathe that clamps to the ways and holds this table. Put three motors on it and I'd have a three axis setup capable of carrying several tools. The software setup would be 'interesting' to say the least. Add a disconnectable method of precision rotating the lathe's spindle and it could do... lots of things. Keeping things simpler would be to just mount an X/Y and run the spindle on/off manually. --- This email has been checked for viruses by Avast antivirus software. http://www.avast.com ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ New Year.
