I did have some that were embedded in a cnc-zone post, but it looks like that hosting service has disappeared, and taken the images with it. The trick I used on my mini-lathe was to have a relatively small toothed-belt pulley that could fit under the cross slide with a needle-roller to resist the belt tension, and then put the thrust-bearings rather further outboard in the manual-handle extension. The Holbrook was easier because the cross-slide never came further than the front of the apron. https://goo.gl/photos/ZA19udQrNAoTnRUv7 -- atp "A motorcycle is a bicycle with a pandemonium attachment and is designed for the especial use of mechanical geniuses, daredevils and lunatics." — George Fitch, Atlanta Constitution Newspaper, 1916 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ _______________________________________________ Emc-users mailing list Emc-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/emc-users
