A Wallaby of my own.

Yes but I had a "standard" 7/8-20 arbor already bought for the head....except it wasn't 7/8-20!

Need an arbor?

Dave

[Bezalel]

Not even big enough to chuck it in the arbor to anchor a tinnie

[Jo]

This thread seems to have gone quiet..

Dave any progress?

Jo

[steamer]

Working 60+ hours a week right now Jo.....later in the month maybe.

Dave

[Jo]

You want to come and work in Europe we are limited to 48 hours by law (and it does not apply to one's own workshop)

Jo

That law doesn't seem to apply where I work 

[steamer]

OK...it's 5:36 AM and because I've been doing it all week...I woke up at 4:30 AM.....so ....I'm up

I have the timing cover up in the mill......and I'll pick up there...see how far we get before Mario wakes up....

Dave

[steamer]

OK...profiled most of the outside....at least the bolt bosses...using the "milling button" method of HNC.

I'll post a picture when I figure out what I did with my USB cable.......


Dave

[steamer]

OK....




I like the button method...it works well.

Dave

[stevehuckss396]

I've never seen that button method before. Good stuff!

[Jo]

Dave, Do you mean move the cutter up to the button until you see it spin? Then back off and do the next bit  ?

Jo

[Roger B]

My question as well?

[Don1966]
