Or my way, which was even simpler: https://picasaweb.google.com/108164504656404380542/Gibbs First 14 pics. In brief: machine an angle. Set straight. Clamp some brass in there, machine both at the same setting. Fit. But it seems crazy to go to so much trouble to improve one lathe to make a part for the other. Why not make a not-so-good part on the little lathe, then use the Sheldon to make a better part for itself? -- atp "A motorcycle is a bicycle with a pandemonium attachment and is designed for the especial use of mechanical geniuses, daredevils and lunatics." — George Fitch, Atlanta Constitution Newspaper, 1916 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ _______________________________________________ Emc-users mailing list [email protected] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/emc-users
