Hello
This is a rotary table
And this is a dividing head
For my inexpert eye the seems to make the same job (the rotary table comes whit se same chuck that the dividing head, or at least it seems the same chuck). But the rotary table has 2 positions, vertical and horizontal, and the dividing head has infinite positions.
The other diference is the price of course!
At the moment, I´m planing make some circular divisions, and probably gears. For that is enought the rotary table of the picture?
And for the future, what things can the dividing head do that are not possible with the rotary table? you know, to don´t say in the future, Oh no, I should habe bought that expensive dividing head, but I chose to eat! (or I chose to don´t sleep in the couch again)
Thank you
best regards
