Now I know what I can do with the 6" Yuasa RT I have. Good thinking.

RWM great idea! I have a small 3" that I could probably fit to my Atlas 618.

This suggestion should go in the tools forum.

Checked the run out in the "X" direction on my Enco mill/drill. 2.008" on both ends of 1/8" X 5" long A36 steel. Used a home sharpend 3/8" end mill. Held it in a 4" horizontal swivel vise. Pretty happy with the results as I am at least 2nd owner.
Have a good day

It looks great, Sharky.

Definitely need the 2 bo5tom drawers, then re use my craftsman boxes for engine building and other infrequently used specialty tools. I'd like to find a KR590 top chest to match, then I could probably "retire" a stack of craftsman boxes.

Got my Tach installed after seeing how Snell Metalfab - Joe do his. After looking again I found there were already 2 holes in the top cover so I just reamed them out to 1/4" and installed the box and sensor using them. Turned out pretty good if I do say so. Just the right height too.
Thanks for the inspiration Joe.

Bolted a rotary table to the lathe cross slide for a quick radius turner.
