Re: not a LOM question

Hello everyone.How about re-grinding a spade bit? a 3/4" spade bit  ground down on a tapper to 1/2" At the bottom  would do pretty much the same thing. Some times , Necessity is the Mother...     (come on Mike finish the quote.)  ;-) Have a good night all. C.A.G.On Monday, January 7, 2019, 2

Re: not a LOM question

I can not tell what your diameter is but I make chairs with tapered mortise and have a bit similar to what Mike showed. Lee Valley has them but not sure if the bottom would end up blunt enough for you. These can be chucked up in a drill or drill press but are for slow speed. Kind Regards, Timothy

Re: Not a LOM question

Max,Cool - Thanks.  I "shuda known" that Veritas/Lee Valley would have that tool.  Nice - but more than I'd ever spend to make a handful of candle holes.  If I were in to furniture making, I might have the tool for making holes for wedged tenons - IF I used them in the furniture.   Otherwise, my mo

Re: Not a LOM question

If my memory serves me correctly, I have seen a rubber/plastic deep "ring" (about 3/4' tall) that was molded to have a taper on the inside and the outer "side" was vertical.  It was designed to put a tapered candle into it and then insert it into a bored hole that has straight sides.  You can call

Re: not a LOM question

I feel the tool that Bill provided a link to is THE solution (or a tool similar to it).  The cutter you have here (pictured below) has too much of a taper - in my opinion.  You only want a slight/gradual taper - which should match the slight taper that many candles have at their base.  Before borin

I believe that's right, bore a cylindrical hole and ream it to dimension. Thanks guys for the responses and wisdom max From: legacy-ornamental-mills@googlegroups.com on behalf of Rick Waters Sent: Monday, January 7, 2019 9:37 AM To: legacy-ornamental-mills@goog

RE: Legacy's turn table (Happy New Year.)

I have 2 rotary tables one for the revo and one for the 900 both are very good and well worth the cost i feel. But if i didn’t have one I think one could be made by cutting the gears using a gear pattern generator on line and a scroll saw to cut from either aluminium or wood personally i would

Re: not a LOM question

Plug cutters drill conic holes. A plug cutter would leave a jagged bottom. The bits that Bill and Okla Mike showed have pointed tips, so would leave a conic bottom. Your candle holder mortises have flat bottoms. Maybe a conic shaped router/shaper bit could do this? On Mon, Jan 7, 2019 at 9:11
