Length is fine for me, Just thinking but length is just what it is to get the context across. Aside: When I watch some of the Shawn Ryan Interviews, it's like 5 hours long. Yes a few setting to get thru it, but It's length is needed to get thru all the material and it also allows the interviewee to go off on tangents you will not hear on other formats. Delta and Seal members are part of his guest list.

If you need cheap lathe carbide you can use circular saw blades.. Just cut off one tooth along with about an inch of steel so you can weld it to your blank at the angle you want.. (better to use the thick blades). They make great cut-off tools for small diameters and thin wall jobs.
@mtraven23 Жыл бұрын
I cut the whole tool from a saw blade & just stick it in a standard parting holder...no welding required, I'd be worried about heating the braze up too much.
@mtraven23 Жыл бұрын
@rollinrat4850 i do it all the time. Even cheep saw blades work well. Here is the downside: there is VERY little contact area for the braze on the top of the saw. Since its carbide, you can pretty easily make enough heat to soften that braze & rip the carbide out...usually embedding it in the part. So my word of advice, keep them well lubricated / cooled.

Love your work. The energy that emanates from your shop is all positive and peaceful. Totally dig the fact that there's no DRO's anywhere in sight! I run a little shop here in Holland using only vintage iron mainly of German and Swiss origin. On the workpiece you made, Use a cylindrical fit and assemble with green Loctite like 601. Positive fit of 0.01 - 0.03 mm. Then skim cut the face. The bolt holes can be easily scribed off saving tons of time setting up the dividing head. Note: skimming through the comments it turns out the 5C/ blank end arbors are for sale for next to nothing. Goes to show it pays to investigate. Always more than one way to skin a cat.

This is exactly why I always research before committing to the DIY route. Of course there are emergency fixes sometimes when lead times are unacceptable (factory line down situations). I often see people making their own 'COTS' items (T-nuts etc.) which is totally fine then you are a hobbyist but in the real world time is money. Not saying that is a good thing and I always try to find a balance.
