Re: Drill a Hole
You're drilling lots of these holes, so it would waste too much time to use a spotting drill, mill flats on the rod, and so on. Instead I would use a guide block, but different than the one in your

Re: Mini lathe motor temperature
Those are not operating temperatures, they are MAXIMUM temperatures. You want to be as far away from them as possible. If your casing is 80 degrees then your armature is far hotter than that. You can

Re: Drill a Hole
The idea of a spotting drill is they have an angle slightly bigger than your drill, so 120 or 140 degree is typical. This means the drill starts off nice and centred as opposed to what happens with

Re: Drill a Hole
Use a spotting drill to make a pilot hole. They're roughly the same thing as a centre drill except wider tip angle (centre drill is 60 degree). Then again a centre drill would probably work just fine

Re: Drill a Hole
If drilling "a lot" of holes, milling a flat on the rod is not practical. A grooved block with a guide hole will be far more practical [email protected]> wrote:
