Hi gang,
Anyone have or are familiar with the Holdridge radius turning jig.
I have been kicking around the idea of making a radius turning jig, I like the Holdrige design but could not come up with an easy way of making the frame. In the work shop under my house which I now call the Tardis from Doctor Who, as all the family think it has never ending space i.e. Just put it under the house. Camper trailer and too much non work shop crap. I remembered I have the outer and inner race from a large bearing, OD say 200 mm, I can cut both into C s with the angle grinder to use for the frame. So this is my question to weld fixtures to them and drill holes how should I go about it. Weld with Tig and say use stainless filler, to drill heat to anneal?. Food for thought to get the cogs turning.
If anyone has one gathering dust let me know. I have a brand new Japan made auto reversing tapping head for a drill press or mill that I need to trade sell.
Cheers
Bruce
