Machining the dogs for the drive gear on the Kearney and Trecker. I came close to RUINING the gear!
The LAST bit of machining to get this drive gear usable for the K&T. after MORE THAN TWO YEARS! I can’t believe I have had this thing for that long. And I nearly RUINED it!

Making a Drive Gear for the K&T Universal Milling Head – More Machining and Solving Challenges
With the drive gear spacer machined, I need to mount it properly to the drive gear. But more importantly, I need to figure out how I am going to machine and mount the drive dogs on the back of the gear.

Machining the Drive Gear Spacer for the K&T
An important piece of the drive gear for the universal head is a spacer screwed to the front of it that ensures proper meshing with the driven gear inside the universal head.

Machining the Drive Gear Arbor for the K&T
Continuing on with this project to get the K&T universal head mounted onto the horizontal mill. I need to machine an arbor for the drive gear and it only makes sense to do this on the horizontal mill to ensure concentricity.

Happy Father’s Day!
Converting a Horizontal Mill into a Lathe – K&T Drive Gear
The last thing I need to be able to use the universal vertical head on my K&T horizontal mill is to mount a drive gear to the spindle. I have a blank tool holder that I think will make a good arbor. Now to figure out how to machine it.
