Hi, First off , I am no machinist, But have been doing it for 10 + Years ,So you professionals , Go easy on me, Ha ha,
I am going to make a batch of 2, Items Either in Brass or Aluminium, they both need milling so the lathe is out,
They are quite complicated ( To me at least ) & Need a number of operations,
I have a " Chinese " Lathe miller & Its very good, I can use the milling machine for the work, However I need to do 2, Milling operations with the piece insitu,
To cut to the quick, I made this up ( About a day ) & Half a day to get dead square ?
Pics -
Its now all set up & I can combine 2, milling operations insitu ( Important to replicate an item )
I can remove/replace it in minutes, I can also use the lathe chuck to hold " Any" Of the CHEAP carboot milling tools I buy , What do you think !
Cheers, Ged.
