Hi Evan et al,
When you are writing or replying to a post via the 开云体育 web interface, your message should be saved in the Drafts folder.? Unless you hit the Discard button.
You can have multiple drafts too, even on the same thread.? Draft will be saved for two weeks.??
?
I use this feature quite a bit.? e.g. Half finished reply, that I may get to later on.? Something I write but decide to think some more before hitting send.
I'm using it now <smile>.? Just realized I don't need to write a mini-manual.? Better service for me to search and provide a link to the manual.
?
Section: "7.7 Working with draft messages on the group’s website"
?
Regards,
Gary

You could type your message into the
windows notepad, or something similar, and copy + paste into the
web pages......

Hi Ron,

Yes I do that SOME of the time. The problem is I keep
forgetting to make a copy. Other software, like text editors
don't do that, so I only have to remember when using online

the gear train.
It also includes calculations for taper turning by the tailstock

It includes the specifications for many thread types eg metric,
UNC, BSW, and BA.
Displays drill sizes for tapping threads at any percent thread

Thanks Bruce, that is what I thought. Now has anyone built a drive with steppers? I'd like to see how you set it up.

The title "Cutting with a rotating cutter" made me think you might be making a polygon cutter for making square, hexagonal, pentagonal shafts etc. You are half way there with gears on the end of the leadscrew! ?My online program RideTheGearTrain includes a simulation of the polygon cutter so that you can vary the number of cutters on the spinning cutter head, vary the gear ratio between leadscrew and spinning cutter, and vary radius to see what effect it has:
?
?
I also have ? about it, including links to other YouTube videos of actual devices.
?
In this link you may also find when you scroll down quite a bit, an indexing device bush fix that I made using a small circular saw blade and I can substitute a range of change gears. The clicker I made for this makes it quite positive and precise: A broken hacksaw blade lifts up on a tooth of the saw blade and clicks off the edge of the tooth. Turn the check back a bit and the saw blade registers nicely on the straight edge of the saw tooth. It is prevented from bending backwards by a metal support on the underside of the blade. the blade I am using has 24 teeth and it is precise enough for at least 24 divisions, 12, 8, 3, 2, 4 etc.

Re: A new (and slightly off) topic
I probably should have mentioned you generally want higher speeds for milling wood.? Turning on the 7x12 isn’t too bad (a little too slow for small diameter stuff like pens), but there’s quite a bit of difference between the speed of a mill-mill and a router. ? The mill really isn’t fast enough, does work in some cases.? Usual solution is to bolt a little router (ie Dremel etc) to the mill head.? Similar to how people bolt die grinders etc to the lathe compound. ? Tony ? ? ?

As I can’t remember it in the last 10 years or so when I think(?) I joined the group. So in fear and trepidation ‘May I ask’ ??? I need to make some small but accurate ( but not precision,) hardwood blocks, approximately 50mm x 50mm x 20mm thick (2in. x 2in. x 1in. thick). They have rebates and angled faces etc. I have sufficient and appropriate router cutters, plus collets. So is there any technical reason why I can’t mill or rather rout them on my milling machine. It will be so much easier and much more accurate. They will probably be made of beech. (I can’t see any reason not to, but I have never tried it before? ) Thank you in advance (but with fear & trepidation),? ?That was my instant thought as well. Something like this:? It won’t work as a crank AND dividing head for your use case, but for the times you need to crank the lathe by hand (like when making a large thread or worm gear ) ?it will work better than trying to get enough torque to do it with the lathe motor. Christophe has a bunch of really elegant tools and builds.
? Hi Johannes. You don’t need an extra crank. As your dividing disc uses the outer edge for measurement. Just drill a suitable hole in the disc, with a suitable bolt and handle, this can be attached when you need it and removed when you don’t. I have a big dividing disk on the left side of my lathe.? So no space for the crank. However, after some days use, I will use my new crank much more.

It does look like it takes a small flat belt
Maybe 1 1/2-2 inches wide. These can be found online with varying lengths and widths. It has to be disassembled to get a belt on it.
You can also buy small flat belt pulleys online, Amazon I believe has them
The unit can then be powered by a half horse electric motor and whatever wheels that fit the shaft OD can be utilized.
Best of luck
One of the things I really like about these old set ups is that they are very quiet compared to the usual bench grinding.

Re: A new (and slightly off) topic
Cleanliness is the key to success & longer machine life!
?
Drill presses commonly get used for both wood & metal with no particular problems. Just clean everything thoroughly before & after machining; adding some machine coverings can help reduce the clean-up work.
