Looks good Don, I haven't done the micro drum or the dividing plates for mine, but your inspiring me to get them done.

Hugh I do hope you finish yours, it went rather well on this one and drilling the holes was pretty easy with my drilling attachment. This was the tool post grinder I converted to a drill attachment. It turn 6000rpm so it makes it easy to drill through. If you don't have one getr one I really enjoy using it.

Dave

Thanks Dave for looking end and commenting.

Ok the attachment is now complete and ready for use  I have posted photos below of the finish Dividing Attachment. This tool has been an enjoyable venture and I have learned a lot doing it. It will be useful for future projects and some of the tools I will be building. I will probably finsih this year building more tools

This first photo is for you Steve and Vince, Just wanted to show you my setup with my stools.


The final photos of the attachment.




Thanks for looking in Guys and Gals.
I will be moving the VDH to is't own thread, I was going to continue in this one but starting another is best.

Fabulous job my friend!   That will stand you in good stead and you will always smile when you make a part with it knowing...you made it!..

Now that's as fulfilling as a crawfish omelet and sweeter than beignets and cream

Eric

Eric

Now you did make the omelet quiet tasty isn't it ,and how did you like our beignets?

On another note I have attached a culaculation sheet to go along with the Dividing Attachment. Its set up with a 60:1 ratio and list all the hole patterns that GHT had it his book. Hope some of you find it helpful.

Great job Don and very nice finish too!

Like the toolpost grinder -> drilling spindle as well as the stool.

Cheers
Steve

[vcutajar]

Congrats Don.  You are really getting tooled up.

Vince

[Jo]

That looks good Don. And being able to use it to make parts for itself as you went along must have helped you learn some of the possible uses for it 

I was a little concerned about the angle that your tailstock is "hanging at" in one of the photo's

Don't know what Eric's on about, but well done. The great thing about GHT's stuff is that not only does it work well, but it looks great. Yours is a very good example of the latter (and, I'm sure, the former). Looks great in Blue Velvet. I remember the movie!

Well Eric is posting with a bit of a southern drawl ...perhaps a lot of a southern drawl...I know what he meant....and it was good!
