Coming along nicely. Wife is out of town so I got to watch this video on the big screen instead of the laptop!

Thanks, John. More great stuff! You are going to have a great tool when you are finished. I really like your indexing head. That's a great idea! Regards, Dave

Great video John. I am eager to see the finished product.

[@diggmore1362]

The boxford was the first lathe that I used a great machine I like the indexing head. Keep up the good work john

Wow! I love that ball bearing centering tool. Gonna make one right now.

Hi John, When I had a Boxford, it had an original plain cross slide, not an aftermarket T-slotted one like yours. I machined a flat area on the back to mount a rear tool post and used that for parting off. I never had trouble parting again (I never used back gear). It also worked great for batch work as I could set a fixed distance between a facing tool and the parting tool. My Harrison has an L00 spindle nose, so there's no chance of the chuck unscrewing. As I've mentioned before, I run the parting blade upside down and the spindle in reverse. I even sometimes part off with self act!

John, I just finished making a holder for my round die nuts . I think I like yours better I might have to make one. Thanks for the videos

Great project - and a much nicer item than you can buy from our usual suppliers. Did you forget to add on half the diameter of the pin when edge-finding? I know it's only a mm (have to say the pin looks bigger than 2mm?) - just wondering as it's something I've tripped up on once or twice. Thanks.

[@robincox8902]

Nice to watch you make that, can I ask! Are you blind in your left eye? I also like you high standard of safety nice to see. For a novice like myself a nice little project. Rob

I have the exact same tool post as you do. I am limited to 0.5" x 0.5" tools. You seem to be using larger tools than my holders can handle. What brand are tour tool holders and where can I get some? I live in Peterborough, Ontario, Canada.

[@jasonburns1407]

hi great vids. Can you please tell me what site you got the deg chart from?

[@andytaylor8802]

Just to show we listen as well as watch your videos. You say as the cut gets further in you speed the lathe up to keep the surface speed up. I would have thought it was speeding up as it got smaller anyway??

[@johncrea9395]

Andy As the cut gets deeper, the cut surface gets smaller, thus the rationale for increasing the speed as the cut gets deeper John
