Thanks for another great post Stan. Really enjoy your approach to “the grind”! Hope your New Year is excellent! Looking forward to another bash & thanks again for that damn good looking Bar-Z hat!
I don't know what I would put on a stencil off the top of my head. But, I think it is a great idea. Maybe do a bulk pack of maybe 5 to 10. If nothing else, it is a great way to keep that fabulous old machine in use. Happy New Year Stan. 🎉🥳
We thought we had bad centers, so we reworked both centers and did a bluing check. We found that the centers were pushing out, overcoming the spring pressure in the headstock. Tightening the spring knob would keep the part spinning true, but the motor didn't have the power to overcome the added friction
@ShadonHKW yeah, the spring pressure isn't sufficient on mine, unless I tighten it down hard against the fully compressed spring, but then there's no ability to compensate for thermal expansion, and you have to unscrew the adjustment knob to get it in and out.
Hey I want a stencil for sure. Spray my name on scuba tanks!!!! Also want a set of 45 degree squares...I have a set of 60 degree I really like. Happy New Year

So it isn't just me. I'm struggling to get mine to securely hold a cylinder square without opening up.
