Since I just acquired a Powermatic 3520C this tool is just what I need. My old lathe spindle was 1x8. The Powermatic is 1.25x8.. The price ($95) is reasonable too.🙂🙂

Thanks John for all the information on this new part! I’ve been looking for one and here it is! 😊My lathe is 1.25”x 8 tpi! I may wait till you have the one made out of stainless steel! Thanks for sharing!

do you have an info on how you wired up the spindle? every video i see is the same info. always how to do the x,y,z motors or install a new motor with a vhd. but not found any with connecting stock motor :/

Nice setup. I will definitely design and print my own chucks. Can you tell us where you got the rotary adapter for the head stock?
@Accu-SliceАй бұрын
I bought the rotating tailstock adaptor about 10 years ago. Apparently it is no longer available since I was not able to find any source for this item when I did an internet search. I will be working on designing and machining these units in the near future since I have had several requests for them. I just finished designing a prototype which I 3-D printed to check out my design. As soon as I can find some time, I will do an initial test by machining one out of aluminum.

Very nicely done, I am wondering why you used a tool post for your cut off tooling. It would seem like a custom tool holder in place of the rear tool post would give you more room for your gang tools

Why not cut 2 boards at once? You have two stops and two clamps might as well double your production

I wonder if using a heat gun might increase the viscosity and push the epoxy deeper to the crimp joint. Neat idea thanks for posting John

Would it be possible to get your STL files for your Vacuum Chucks?
@Accu-Slice3 ай бұрын
I made a significant number of drawings on the vacuum chucks and I had to modify the drawings several times to print out accurately on my 3-D printer. I am not confident that my drawings will fit your system and 3-D printer. i recommend that you create your own drawings and tweek them it to accurately print out with your 3-D printer. .

Thanks for the update on the vacuum chuck! On your tail stock with the free spinning chuck where did you find that spindle with a 1 1/4” thread all I can find is a 1”x8 threads per inch? Thanks you John for sharing!

I did search the web and I could not find a rotating live center 1.25 x 8 tpi unit like I have. I also saw on the web that many others are looking for this item. It seems like it should be readily available, but i could not find it. I am not sure where I got it. I added to my system about 10 years ago. I thought that I bought it from Nova, but I could not find it on their web site. What Nova does have is a live center kit which I found on the Nova web site. NOVA LATHE ACCESSORY 2MT LIVE CENTER SYSTEM (SKU 5015 AND 71074) and then I found a Nova 1.25 x 8 tpi Tailstock Chuck Adaptor which I found on the Rockler web site. But I could not locate this on the Nova web site. Perhaps joining these two units will do the job, but it seems like an expensive way to go.

Great job! I do 90% of my turning using face plates and doing this will come in handy. To me a 3d printer is a must have tool and are quite inexpensive. I 3d printed all my blast gates on the 3d printer and they are much better than the boughten ones.

Why print them so tall? PLA is plenty strong in compression. But the offset way above the clamping axis is adding unneeded torque to the jaws. Shorten them up so the printed "parallel" surface is just above the top surface of the vise. You'll get more clamping force with far less load on the jaw.

You CLAIM that you cut the wood to 1/100,000th of an inch? do you know how ridiculous you sound when you said that, a cigarette paper is 0.02mm thick yet you think that your bandsaw can cut to 0.000254mm in thickness, even your claim of 1/10,000th inch is 0.00254mm. You need to go back to school and learn basic math. But at least in your video description you wrote down the correct measurement of 1/100th of an inch and 1/10th of an inch which is 0.254mm and 2.54mm respectively (you're still being optimistic with the 0.254mm thickness).

It's lovely to see the pursuit of perfection in such a specific subset of a craft. For aligning glue-ups precisely, I wonder if you could use a tiny dowel system by drilling 2 holes down through the body of the cylinder before slicing it into discs. Hole 1 in the bottom disc gets dowel-aligned to hole 2 in the next disc up, ad nauseam. The dowels would be smaller than tic-tacs!

Great product John, I love my Accu-Slice, I have cut material as thin as .020 with great accuracy, I look forward to purchasing the Accu-wedge system to cut segments for ornaments , typically these are 3" spheres, I don't think it will be a problem cutting the 3/4" thick, 3" tall stock to get the segments needed. I'm greatly impressed with the accuracy of your product and just as impressed with the items you create and share in these videos. Thanks for sharing !
@PaulMorley15 ай бұрын
John, thank you very much for the informative video. I do have a question I hope you can clarify. At 3:53, on the tool offset tab just after you reset tool 10, you stated that both the X and Z are zero because "they have been setup to be the same value as the X and Z values for the System". Initially I wasn't seeing the same zero values but I then realized you had pressed the 'Zero button' in the lower portion of the screen earlier. This was the key I had missed. Then at 5:32 you mention "Do not change the values of X and Z in the center of the screen". I take it that this means, after setting the first tool, I should not ever type in values in the X and Z in the lower portion of the screen (assuming my physical tools do not change from day to day), EXCEPT for those times when a small overall adjustment might be needed like you mentioned at 15:14. Or if I do a complete library reset. Does that sound right? Thanks again for the great content.

I would suggest looking into PLA+ or just printing with polycarbonate as its more consistent and almost exactly as strong as the carbon impregnated filaments. the CF filaments are also really abrasive running through your machine and you will have to replace the nozzle a lot more often. I would also recommend printing the jaws with the 2"x1" side or 1"x6" side so there is less of a chance of the layers delaminating as that is almost always the failure point of 3D prints. Another good way to increase rigidity is using the largest washers you can get away with to distribute force more evenly. you can also run bolts through a tapped hole vertically through the part to spread force out through more layers.
