Good morning members.
This months cover photo shows a group of gears that I machined using a CNC DDCS control box, and home made indexing head, and
a sub routine g code.
These gears replace the original factory plastic gears in a Real Bull mini lathe. I did buy a set of replacement gears steel gears, but these were very noisy,
as the center line distance or pitch diameter between mating teeth was excessive.So decided to make my own using aluminium.
Photos show 12 T 20T 21T 29T gears and the use of a MOD 2 involute gear cutter.
The root diameter of the teeth were cut? out using a 3 mm wide slitting saw.
Any questions please ask
Thanks
