Nice! Anyone who posts their build from plans they bought from the HomemadeTools.net plans market gets a free set of plans of their choice. Let me know which ones you want, and we'll purchase them from the plans author and send them to you for free.
Thank you Jon, that is a very nice offer. Just happens that I have had my eye on rossbotics Universal Grinding Fixture Plans.
Looks to be the perfect size for my little grinder and would be a great addition to my shop.
Thanks again, JR
Nice Job JR! Is that taper attachment part of your Sherline equipment or did you make that too?
Hi PJ, the method I used for the taper was just to use the rear mounted compound slide with the inverted tool bit. Worked like a champ. The compound was purchased as part of the Sherline lathe kit.
Cheers, JR
