Any flywheel will obviously have a hole in the middle, and probably a threaded hole. Drill and tap a hole first for 1/4" threaded rod (or whatever you have handy). That, plus the superglue, should hold it.? If you can't center the hole exactly without using the lathe, don't worry about it. You can always move it somewhat later on. For more reach with the tool, here's an adjustable tool post I made years ago for my homemade QCTP.? I offset the toolpost about an inch from the Allen screws that attach it to the cross slide,? mostly for convenience.? But you could make something similar with the tool offset as much as you need to in order to move the tool back to reach the perimeter. Mike Taglieri?
