      Yes, that's probably not a good idea to secure the drive dog that way, just needed something quick for the video demonstration. ( do not try this at home)

    The cam i made i used a small rotary table offset in a 4 jaw chuck. The lobes were press on. I would make a pass and index the table 5 degrees . After the lobe was done about an inch long i sawed it into and had 2 for a single cyl engine

      That sounds like a pretty good way to do it.

      @@gwheyduke Yes , no fixtures of any type. The stock has a hole through it and mounts to the table with a stud. My cheap table has a habit of tipping slightly when the lock is tightened , that was the only issue

    Beautiful work!
    Great video.
    Where can I get the CAM CAT Device?
    I intend to make a small camshaft.

    • @gwheyduke

      The Cam Cat is constructed with drawings from Strictly I.C. magazine. The magazine is no longer in print but back issues are available online; strictlyic.com/index.html look for the August/September 2000 issue. If you study the video carefully you could make one. It's actually pretty simple.

      Bob Shore's "Cam Cat" article appeared in Strictly I.C. magazine. His wife was selling back issues here www.strictlyic.com/index.html also on the Florida Association of Model Engineering there is an article under "tips and links" of a similar fixture. www.floridaame.org/

    i am a fan of collets and cotters.
    and i despise split clamps.
    looks like wacking the back plate out of solid with a tapered bush aka collet would clamp it with far less issue with bolts stripping... akin to the taper locks on shafts/pulleys/bearings...
    for a quick one off, these do the job. for anything serious? far too limited! fixed throw, etc...

      Strictly I.C. magazine published the article before they ceased operation. Sadly, Both the publisher of Strictly I.C. and the author of this article have passed away. The magazine was available as back copies online. You could do a google search and possibly find it.
