Re: Keyway Broach
An excellent video, Malcolm. I suppose your tool can be used to broach the corresponding keyway into a shaft, provided there isn't so much sticking out of the chuck that flex becomes a problem. Andy

Re: Cut off grider
I think it's always best to avoid grinding on the lathe unless there is a very good reason. The grinding dust is hard to clean up effectively and wears everything. If you have room for it, either a

My wife was using our 4x6 earlier this week to make some small angle brackets for a customer's project and cutting up some 3" x 6" tube for another one. I did have to modify my 4x6 bandsaw so a 3x6"

Re: Cut off grider
Yes, I cut off a few pieces that way before I got my bandsaw. Although you can get a decent cut with an angle grinder as long as you're careful, I greatly prefer using a bandsaw. I can get just as
