Before converting my little Sieg X1 to CNC (maybe), I'm going to get a small 4" rotary table to be able to do circles and parts thereof.
My question is, assuming no production runs or many multiples of the same part, is the addition of a dividing plate setup necessary for equally spacing an arc or circle of points on a part, or can it be accurately done by cranking the table the requisite number of degrees, locking it, performing the necessary machining operation, then repeating the process?
Thanks,
M
