Re: mill threading

Ballendo,

I was wondering about the Sherline tailstock

http://www.sherline.com/3702inst.htm

And whether it would work with the adjustable angle table and a rotary
table. Seems like it needed it's own bed? I guess not, I looked again,
and it must bolt to the bed directly.

Found my answer, I should have looked it up before asking!

" As an additional feature, the rotary table location has been
calculated so that when rotated to the 90° position, it comes out at the
same height as the rotary table tailstock, which eliminates the need for
the right angle attachment. "

Something I need to order to mill threads.

Alan (too much thinking)
