This will work better if each member adds new links to the tacked Gateway thread under their own user name. Your new threads are buried in this one, or you can have their titles viewable right on top by adding your own links.
We will not have a long list of tacked threads at the top of the forum. If I see a new link added to the Gateway thread with a topic that is worthy of preserving, I can set a toggle that will keep the thread out of the archive. I may not notice if it's added to an existing thread tacked inside the Gateway. Read the first post of the Gateway thread, too. http://www.ar15.com/forums/topic.html?b=6&f=49&t=303629 |

Due to wide spread blindness at this entire forum, I'll add a link (again): Gateway to Interesting and Useful Threads in the Gunsmithing Forum - All Tacked Threads (Look at the top of the forum.) |

I posted this elsewhere but here probably makes the most sense.
The crossfeed on my lathe, a 1943 Monarch 12ck, had about 0.090" lash so I set about making a new lead screw and nut. It was challenging. The screw was 7/8-4LH acme with an OAL of 24". This resulted in me making some material compromises from the 41xx screw and bronze nut to an 1144SP screw and Delrin nut. After some pencil fiddlin, I determined Delrin was up to the task and set forth. Step one was to turn a tap, the first one I've ever made. It didn't work as well as an OSG, but it measured right and cut some threads. Much relief was added after I took this pic.  Attached FileStep two was to create the nut. Straight forward mill work there. Step three was the screw. With planned cuts I was able to keep my TIR and taper very low over the shaft's lengths and diameters. The screw measures about 0.001"/1" lead error. Certainly not factory quality, but I'll take it.  Attached FileI didn't get any pics of the cutting in action, I was pretty concentrated on not botching the job. Heres the screw and nut together on the plate, and then again as they're loaded into the taper attachment slide's bearing block.  Attached File Attached FileI learned a lot in this project...like how to turn your mill into a tool grinder.  Monarch wanted $1600 (5years ago) for this screw/nut combo, and while there's would have been better I dont think they'd be justifiably better than my $50 effort.

See the Gateway thread at the top of the forum?
That is your venue. Now, I would rename that thread "Projects" or something, except that it wouldn't matter, few pay attention to tacked threads. One of the reasons I limit the number in forums I moderate. |
