You are correct that I used the "Crank Handle Indexing" But what math would you use to create 19 indexes?

I have no idea how heavy they turned out but I did what I could to lessen the load.

Mike OK

Very Nice Mike!
I very much like your gear indexing concept... (Just for those who have not seen Mike's video... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oHgzEKnON-o&t=7s )

Now one of these days we need to take a better look at the Radio lathe/ wood chuck modifications  (but that's another topic.)

How heavy are those trophy s ? they are huge!

Thanks for sharing with us Mike.
Happy New Year!

Well here is the first post of the year with my Wood Chuck.  I have been making many trophy bases over the years that have gone in a lot of important events.  Here are two of them.  The Nascar Quicktrip 500 and the Arena Football AFL trophys.  We will start with the 500.

The black part that looks like a tire is what I make.
I use a bird mouth to assemble then turn it round.  Dyna-glide for scale
You can see all I had to do to increase my Wood Chuck to swing 20"


then true up the ends and glue on the top
then I flush trim, round over the corners and put a 14 inch inset for the trophy top to set. Ta Da!  Total of about 3 hours work.  They seem to like it cause they have been having me make them for the last 6 years.

Next we have the Arena Football trophy.  I don't have as many picture of it though. Again it is, as you can see, the part they painted.  Then they inlaid the flutes with polished metal and then assembled. On this one I just used a 22.5 cut, it's only 7.5" in diameter and was easy to control.  But here is the fun part, the flutes!

They were supposed to be 5/8" flutes with 5/8 space.  Do the math, it's 19 indexes.
How did I do it??????????????
I'll leave you with that.  More later
Mike OK
