Homemade Lever Operated Rotary Table for Milling

A simple homemade rotary table that is rotated by a lever . It is for people who have a milling machine that want to do radius milling but do not have CNC or a Rotary table.
I made this table when I needed to do some radius cuts but did not have a rotary table at the time. After I purchased a rotary table, I found that I still use my lever operated table most of the time because it is faster and easier to use and faster to set up in the mill.

  • Just showed up as a suggestion for me. One of the nicer hand controlled radius cutting tables I've seen. I especially liked how you were able to extend the use of it with some simple attachments. I'd need to size it to suit my own mill's and mill vise sizes. But I like the concept. I think I might see if I can find the old Bellville washers I've got set aside someplace as the tensioning force too.

  • This is the slickest way to make a tube bending die on KZhead, kudos. Someone cast thiers in aluminum and polished it. Another used a rotary table and a boring head. And another used a large lathe with a radius cutting tool. This is the best however. One would spend hundreds to get a rotary table that could cut radii as big as some in this vid. The only thing i see as a potential downside is the fact there's no way to measure how many degrees its rotated. Maybe pins?

  • I would never be able to have one of these. I’d use it way too often for projects where it isn’t necessary just because it looks super fun to use.

  • how accurate are you with this? +/- .010? also, are you not a fan of climb milling and perhaps a little mister on the tool? 🙂

    @jckdnls9292@jckdnls9292 Жыл бұрын
    • I would say +/- .005 is doable. As for climb milling, you have to very careful that it doesn't suck it in and pull the lever out of your hand. I finish the cut with a climb mill for the last cut only taking off about .01
