Thanks much. The wife was happy with it too. Now my oldest daughter is hinting that she wants one...

Re: Rotary table project

WOULD LIKE TO KNOW IF I CAN POST YOUR PICS ON MY FACEBOOK PAGE WE ARE CHRISTIAN BASE FOKES, THANKS GARRY
Here's a little "project" I did for my wife's Christmas present:



It was mostly done on the mill and you can clearly see where the rotab came in to play. Here are "front" and "side" shots I took during the build to give you a better idea of the concept:





I milled it out of a 4" x 4" x 7" block of aluminum and finished up the base on the lathe.

I have no problem with you using the images Gary.

I do need to make it clear that I can't take credit for the original design. I saw a sculpture, using this concept, at the church my son has Boy Scout meetings at. With that in mind I drew up my own set of "rough" plans in TurboCAD to aid in getting the layout/dimensions "just right".

Best regards,

This will be my first project on my 15" troyke. I am making a mounting plate for a 10" Chuck I just bought. Here is the only shot I got of it in the lathe.

I got my version of RandyM's adapter done this afternoon. I didn't really have any specific need for it right now, but when I do, man I'll be ready! :nuts:
