to you, maybe. To me they raise more questions. Difference in experience. You are a machinist, I am a wannabe. There are clues there, but I'm not educated enough to get them all, just yet. So I asked for further explanation, if he's willing and has time. Bill in OKC

I? hope some day to be skilled enough to make a rifling machine, and it looks like what you've done here could be helpful to know.

Needed to cut 1" pitch on a 4" diameter part 24" long. Here's the kicker, 2" root diameter. Don't remember the angle or radius at the root but you get a sense of the process. Single point was NG, milling was the only option. 2 pcs. 303 SS and 2 pcs. Delrin. 1 each left hand and right hand. Not regular screw threads. Feed screws for pleated filter media to glue the ribbons on. I love a little challenge once in awhile. Dave |
