A first for me, I made a new tool for my lathe!

Finished product first, it’s just a chuck for a grinding disk, anything will fit on it that doesn’t hit the bed, I will need to machine more spacers.

All the bits, I made those spacers and the rod, the nylon tube compresses in the tailstock to make it all snug. When I got this machine it didn’t have all the gears for threading soo.. this is a little jenky till I pick some up. Hmm.. guess I could print some...

Nothing fancy, but it’s always rewarding to make something that works well.

That’s all folks! Will sost again when I grind something worth sharing.

Disgruntled cat tax.. she’s definitely gonna pee on her pillow...
