Part 4 of this series should have been a shorter video, but I ran into some serious issues with the chuck and had to make a rather significant adjustment.

Part 3 of this series of making an adapter plate to mount a 6″ chuck to my 8″ rotary table for use on the Bridgeport vertical milling machine. I needed some new T nuts to mount the adapter plate to the rotary table. And I have a Logan shaper that is aching to be used again.

I’ve recently joined as a member/volunteer for the Midwest Railway Preservation Society. One of the pieces of equipment we have at the roundhouse is a set of 50 ton railroad jacks. One of the maneuvering wheels needed a new axle. I volunteered to make one as a replacement.

Part 2 of this series of making an adapter plate to mount a 6″ chuck to my 8″ rotary table for use on the Bridgeport vertical milling machine. I make a locating pin to help line up the plate, plus do the finish machining on it.

#bridgeport #millingmachine #rotarytable

I’ve got this 8″ rotary table that I would like to make a little more useful. One way is to attach a lathe chuck to it. I have an old 6″ 3 jaw chuck that should do the trick. I just need to make an adapter plate as an adapter plate to mount it all together.

Finally time to install the feed distribution unit back into the knee of the Kearney & Trecker 2HL horizontal milling machine and testing the rapid traverse and power feed operations for the knee and saddle.
