Here is the next installment after the lines are marked I need to be able to center the chuck on the rotary table to do this I had to clean and true up the center hole of the chuck.
The rotary table has a true hole to do this but I am going to have to make a tapered pin that fits in it and the hole and in the chuck.
This way when I turn the table it will be concentric and I can use the 4 jaws on the chuck to make things eccentric if I want.
The applications for this device are endless.
Everything from cutting gear teeth, drilling evenly spaced holes, cutting groves for O rings, spokes for a hub and what I intend to do is make another indexing plate I can mount to the lathe to make dials to make an X Y table for the drill press.
You can even use it to cut flutes in something or make other tooling.
