For a possible future project...maybe a tail stock to go with your rotory table...would give you a lot more options if you have the height. Thanks for sharing another fine design and build.
    Sure can PJ;

    Here are two pics showing how it is made and a link to the Sherline product info sheet.
    I bought one in Feburary at a rather high price for what it is however it is quite precise.
    The rotary portion is a very close fit. It was on sale in Feb but even the sale price is a bit high.
    Unlike some of the import stuff this part is finished and complete without any mods.

    I bought one, but will make more and use the design for other tools.
    The principal is the same as the cross slide mount on my mini lathe, but functionally this one works better.
    Does not take much on the two clamp screws to lock it down since there is such a large area for friction between the rotor and base.
