      Me three. If you'd faced it you would have prepared it as a possible faceplate for a future project. Don't ask me what because I'm not clairvoyant but knowing this "hobby" there's always more than one way of doing something.

    Nice design and build. However, knowing how I am, I would have had cut the face to true it up as well. It looks wonky with the face run out to me. But since it isn't my project, if you like it as is, that's all that matters. Thumbs Up!

    I would suggest putting a stop drill hole at the end of the cur across the diameter, in use that will be a stressed hinge under cyclic load nice place for a fatigue crack to propagate from. Too late now, but hopefully the amount of use the part gets wont be enough to be an issue.

  • @a.bakker64

    OK Keith. Give the W series tools and inserts a go. They're brilliant for interrupted cuts.
    However!... every time you use the plate, it's going to be waving about. For the sake of another two minutes machining you could have faced off the outer side and produced a beautiful looking piece. At some point you may need that outer face to be perpendicular to the machine rotary axis.

      If he thought he would use it as a faceplate, I'm sure he would. Since it only drives the dog, it makes no difference. Sure, it isn't pretty but it doesn't have to be.

      @@premierd8988 if you have a point, use real words, not profane references. You may face your own plate when you make one. If you don't like how Keith does his thing, you don't have to watch.

      Keith said he wanted to keep the original surface (mill scale) on it, probably to make it harder to form rust. If he ever needs it flat he can make it flat.
      His show, his machine, his choice.
