16 point twist
Looking to dire up the 1200 and create some spindles. One section with a 16 point spiral. Unfortunately I gave away my VHS player last year. Can someone point me in the right direction on how this might be accomplished? I have the 24 position index gear. I have been reading Tim’s posts on indexing and didn’t find my answer.

Re: new video on on the legacy
Tim, thanks for your comments I agree the locking collar with a pin is an excellent idea and effective. I said awhile back (I think on my face plate video) that a 1"-8 TPI nut cut down to make narrow to fit on the head stock threads would be an adequate solution. You pin idea on the locking nut would make that even better. As always, there are many solutions to achieve the same result. I look for practical and simple (and least expensive) solutions. my set screw solution falls in that criteria, same as your solution (and Bill's). "Better" is in the eye of the beholder (blue is the better color :>). the two statements that you and Bill both made seem to agree on is the set screw would deflect the chuck when tightened and that the set screw might not hold. This morning I got out my dial indicator and measured the run out of the chuck with the chuck bottomed out on the head stock threads, with the chuck loose on the threads, and with the set screw tightened down. the run out was less than .001" difference in all 3 scenarios. As to the set screw not holding, I said (in my video) it holds fine (believe it or not) and if you are not sure, add a second or third set screw. I therefore stand by my idea that my idea is a valid solution to the problem of timing the piece and holding it on center. the cost of the set screw is cheap, consistent, and easy to set up. What more can anyone ask for. Lastly, if you are turning any piece on centers (both ends of the piece on center pins), the run out is determined by the center pins. The face plate is design to hold the piece during turning, not true to center. if you turn by bolting to the face plate only (no tail stock pin) the outer diameter run out is an issue. the 4 pins are there to force the piece to turn with the face plate rotation and not stay centered unless you are using the indexing hub (no center pin). That has a 4 points of contact to hold the centering of the head stock and run out can then become more of an issue. I hope I explained my point of view adequately :>), If after using this idea for a while, I find it to not work as designed, I promise to let you know.

Re: 16 point twist
hi Jeff, I bought the DVD version of the training (2) disks from Legacy( in the last year). I assume they will sell it to you unless you are prone to yelling at anyone :>) I started with the VHS and I still watch them from time to time. They are worth the $20 that Legacy is asking (again, I think that is what I paid).

Thanks. I called Legacy and was told that they sold out of the video. They did mention that they are in the process of putting them onto their website.

Re: 16 point twist
On a job like that, normally what I do is figure the pitch, Let's ay you will be doing an 8" pitch. That means within the 8 inch run you will need 16 starts and measuring down the length they will be a 1/2" long. so that will help you figure out the blade you will need. Now let's say you are only dealing with a section that is not 8 inches in length, No problem. All you have to do is figure out your starting and stopping point. Make sure it is the same every time. Then after the cut is made move your split-nut over two teeth (1/2") and now you are in the next path. on short runs, I will just run it back. On long runs, I allow my router to run 1/2" long and then open the split-nut and move it back to the start point. Have a look at this video I made, hope it helps. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SjcFpO51upw Mike OK On 12/8/2017 9:17 AM, Love to turn in Oregon wrote: Looking to dire up the 1200 and create some spindles.

Re: 16 point twist
that is strange. when i got mine all she did was copy it from a hard drive to a dvd and sent it to me. they must be out of dvd's :>) ask them if you can get a copy of it from someone else? also, there are places out there that for a fee, they can copy the vhs to dvd. no idea of cost but how much can it cost?

1/2 inch cutter .5x16starts =8inch pitch move the split nut 2 threads each cut 3/4 inch cutter .750x16starts=12 inch pitch move the split nut 3 threads each cut 1inch cutter 1x16starts= 16 inch pitch move the split nut 4 threads each cut 11/2 inch cutter 1.5x 16 starts = 24inch pitch move the split nut 6 threads each cut. No need to use an indexing gear on spirals just open the split nut and move the saddle along the dia of the cutter and re-in gauge the split nut for each cut.

Re: new video on on the legacy
Your runout results are interesting. YMMV (your mileage may vary). My only concern about using a set screw for the average Joe, is that a cup point is used. The holding power would be excellent, but it will damage the spindle by biting into the spindle. A small circle is embossed in the steel. I would hate to do that to any spindle that I own. Choosing a brass or nylon or flat tipped set screw would prevent marking. Like you say, there are several solutions to this. -Tim On Dec 8, 2017 8:15 AM, russ veinot wrote: > > Tim, thanks for your comments > I agree the locking collar with a pin is an excellent idea and effective.
