Very well thought out and excellent work! If I were to do anything different I might have used sheet aluminum for the index wheel. I am bad about over kill! LOL!
Assuming you only have one lathe, the adjustable length arm isn't necessary. The rest is spot on. Thank you for sharing. Have a great day and stay safe.🙂🙂
Perfect - just what I was looking for. As a suggestion if you make another - nail your disk to a board, clamp board to pillar drill bed, then the disk can spin at the right radius for the circle of holes. Just eliminates one of the potential errors?
Reminds me I need to remake my index wheels since I've changed the lathe. Was going to try and do it on my small CNC but being accurate with play in the z axis and size restrictions is the issue You might want to number the holes, especially useful if you do an open segmented work which I find more enjoyable and easier than closed segments,
Great demo Very interested in trying this myself ,would it be possible to get a copy of the template used to drill the indexer. Thanks again for the demo
Hi sorry for delay in getting back to you. Yes of course I have it in Fusion 360 or Sketchup. Send me an email (see my about) and let me know which or both that you want. Geoff
I don't have indexing on my old CL1 but I do have an old Titan Multistar chuck with indexing holes. Watching your video has given me an idea to make a fixing like yours for this chuck as I've needed indexing in the past. How do you rate your Stratos FU twister? If I ever can afford to upgrade my lathe a bench mouted twister is the lathe I'd go for.
Hi Miss Tee, glad it's inspired you. The twister is a lovely machine, this is with the legs which having had a bench mounted lathe before is far more solid. Geoff
The thread on the screw will eventually enlarge the hole on the disk. I would had preferred at least aluminum disk then timber, and practically "no play at all"
I made the hole sized to the non-threaded part, it will eventually wear out but i've proved the theory of my method, so I could make the next in alum. Thanks for your comment, Geoff
@@luvwud Good morning, great video presentation of indexing system. Can I send you an email to also obtain the model to print? Thanks in advance. Sincerely

Thanks David that's a great suggestion. Geoff
Great idea Geoff and a top job making it. Take care, John
Thanks John.
Grandios 👍 👍 👍

Open segmented is something still got to get round too Paul. How do you mean numbering? Geoff
Woah doctor that was pretty awesome 👍😊😎
Hi Luie thanks, hopefully it will inspire people to make instead of buy. Geoff
Nice one, I have a more hybrid approach as I was able to buy only the disc from Paul Howard before he retired. I made my own arm and it works fine.
Thanks for watching, I did consider this, but was just put off by the price.
Nice design. Thanks.
Thanks for your comment and hopefully you found it useful. Geoff

Would you have a video on how to make the cam clamp?
No really sure which part you mean?

Muy interesante, gracias por compartir!
Many thanks

where can i get the hole template?
Email me UtubeG0111@gmail.com. I have this in Sketchup format. Hope this helps.
@@luvwud done...thanks
