As a new feature I
decided to add a project products page. Items of interest that are, or will be
used during the construction of the C3 Lathe Project. Interesting tools
or services may appear on this page as well.

Bison 3 Jaw Chuck and Back
Plate
8/27/2007
Maybe I should
redefine "coming soon". Sorry for the delay. This 4" Bison chuck was purchased
from New England Brass. Bob Cumings is very easy to work
with and quick with the delivery. Took three days. Cheaper than most of
the other supply houses. I think Enco was about $10 cheaper but I couldn't get a
"live person" to talk to there who knew anything. Glad I talked to Bob
as the description on ALL the other sites was WRONG. No two piece jaws.
But I did get a set of soft jaws and some chuck grease :)
Yep, it's a
mounted 1-1/2 x 8 TPI thread back. I had to shorten it about a half inch to
duplicate the Southbend 10K spindle dimensions I have emulated and I
dusted the back for a future dividing plate which will mount via the
jack bolt holes.
We're prototyping a benchtop CNC vertical mill using the DigiSpeed-XL interface card for Mach, Dart Controls and KB Electronics KBIC/KBMM 90VDC motor controllers, 1.5HP treadmill motor from Surplus Center and a R8-spindle head from the X2 mini-mill - not to mention Gecko servo drives and an entirely closed-loop system. Come take a look!
