Thank Lads

Grabbed a couple of hours in the shop this afternoon , machined the tenon (cant think of better word ) on the block . This is were i used my precision scrap gauge to get the distance between the shoulders machined to the correct size .

One shoulder machined finishing cut on second shoulder . set gauge on parallel ,same one first shoulder is sitting on , set hight gauge to zero.


Measure off second shoulder ........0.12mm to machine off .


Machine to size .


Jobs a good one .


Still more milling to do to the block ,,,,,,,,save that for another day .

Well i finished up the machining on the block tonight ,,,,,,, Just needs bolting into its final position , i will do that after i have finished all the machining that needs doing to the knee casting .




I will re-make the Y axis nut mounting block tomorrow


Rob

well dun rob

Don't mean to sound like a broken record Rob, but damn you do nice work!

Ed

Stunning Rob
I was wondering if you are going to "slaver"some yellow paint on it so that it matches the casting
