Thanks, but there's a reason that I took the photos from 5 feet away! It's functional but the finish is less than pretty. That aside, the ability to produce a finished part from start to finish is very rewarding.
One project for the universal div head is the 127-tooth transposing gear for my lathe, along with the rest of the set that were missing. I'm sure other things will come along. I particularly like the idea of experimenting with helical gears, just for the heck of it. If I ever get the hang of that, I might make all my change gears helical. Although I can barely hear the spur gears over the phase converter anyway...
