  • very interesting ... i have made a similar one, but i have incorporated the use of a small index and a boring head...LOL but this set up is better if ya have time to fab the parts.. i like, nice job, i have a Question tho...

    do u have a print of that tap/die holder for your tailstock??

  • I like it !! You have plans for that tool?? also how do you like cz300 lathe?

  • @AgentDexter47 Not sure what it is really, not a metalworking expert...

  • @electrogear steel? really? does that look like steel?

  • Your very clever, love the video.

  • @TheAllimania I'm struggling to see how in any way a spinning steel ball could be ironic?

  • @electrogear not dangarous...its just a pice of metal spinning at ~ 800 rpm

    this is not ironic...

  • Is it not a bit dangerous to hold it like that whilst it's rotating? Could it not end up in limbs being turn off??

  • supercool!!!

  • brilliant ! altough i have a question...

    how do you set this up? do u have a measuring system on the turning table and align the center of the turning table with the Z-axis?(considering that the distance betwwen the center of the table and the tip of the carbit, equals the radius of the ball) or is it with trial and error?

    besides that, very nice inventive idea!
