Tabletop Machining: A Basic Approach to Making Small Parts by Joe Martin

By Joe Martin

Tabletop Machining offers the reader not only the "hows" but in addition the "whys" of machining practices utilizing the lathe and milling computer for metalworking. incorporated are down-to-earth descriptions in addition to specific pictures and drawings. additionally, a wide collection of undertaking pictures illustrates the superb paintings that has been produced through craftsmen utilizing small yet able miniature desktop instruments. even though the instruments utilized in the examples spotlight the small finish of the scale scale in machining, the theories and practices might be utilized to steel engaged on machines of any dimension. no matter if you are a newly graduated engineer or a starting machinist, this publication might help you assemble a few genuine, sensible wisdom of ways machines and machinists truly pass approximately operating with steel. this is not conception, yet particularly it info "real international" practices and offers an outstanding perception into the demanding situations confronted by means of machinists. Too frequently, reliable craftsmen are stopped from venturing forth as the simply details to be had indicates simply the technically excellent technique to do issues instead of the easy, functional tools each person rather makes use of. For these wishing to layout and construct their first steel components, it's a excellent start line, because it highlights the joys that comes from making small initiatives of precision and sweetness.

A "knuckle" on the back of the rotary column attachment allows the column to tilt forward or back. Laser engraved scales on each of these movements make it easy to set the column to angled settings. The Model 5000 or 5400 mill s can mill an angle by rotating the headstock. To drill an angled hole, however, requires either mounting the part on an angle or adding th e optional rotary column attachment. The Model 2000 mill allows a part to be drilled or machined from any angle while it is mounted square to the table.

It is basically the same as the vertical slide on the Sherline mill; in fact, the vertical column attachment that is presently manufactured could be bolted directly to the XY milling base. The headstock/motor/speed control assembly from the lathe is exactly the same as the one used on the mill and can be switched from one to the other in less than a minute. This allows a novice to work or buy . his way into miniature machining a little at a time. To swnmarize, money saving alternatives that would allow both lathe and mill operations to be perfonned would then consist of 1) a lathe with a vertical milling column, or 2) a lathe and mill XYZ base.

33 The Model 5400 mill adds 2" more Y·axis fravel. laser engraved markings, a headstock spacer block and {/ 11-1" drill chuck and key. The Model 2000 8·Motion Mill world- the Bridgeport mill . In ad dition to th e standard hand wheel adjustable movements of the X, Y and Z axes, and the pivoting headstock, the new mill offers four additional movements. The new The latest addition to the model line is patterned after the movements avail able on the most widely used and im itated full si ze machine tool in the 34 The Model 2000 mill takes tabletop machining into the year 2000 and beyond.
