#machining real one next!

#diy #workshop #freecad

Went on a course trying out svegsvarv/ pole lathe at Långbrogård in Mölnbo Sweden, with Oliver and Raleigh (@(@Wildcraftedhome). An intense but fun weekend learning alot. Makes you eager to build one yourself for sure now when I got a few tools ⚒️🌳

Next, I used 3D printed fixture designed in #freecad to accurately flip the saddle for subsequent #machining of the saddle dovetails.

After zeroing on the 16mm reference, I just had to use the DRO for -10.51mm offset.

Re-#machining the saddle with the NAHO #mill for my #cnc minilathe.

Used #freecad to first copy the exact bed profile and then calculate what must be the offset between the re-machined V-slot and other flat surface when referenced from a 16mm cylinder.
