I want to make some D1-4 cams for a 4th-axis project. These need a 10mm square hole (but 3/8 would be fine too). I don't think I can polygon-bore a square, it needs too much tool-relief. (I guess I should try, though).
If I could find something like a 3/8" drive socket with no hole in it that would be a good starting point. Any ideas? I have thought of having a hex hole and starting from an M24 grub screw (setscrew). But those cost about the same as an actual cam. (though the only source of cams I have found in the UK have no stock, or I would have bought them). http://spares.xyzmachinetools.com/XYZ-TRAINER-1330-1340/products/29/ lists zero stock at £7.77 -- 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 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Check out the vibrant tech community on one of the world's most engaging tech sites, Slashdot.org! http://sdm.link/slashdot _______________________________________________ Emc-users mailing list Emc-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/emc-users
