King Industrial Rotary Table & Dividing head plats.

[Martin W]

Thank you both. I guess a good quality brand name like King will only take you so far...
Thanks I will look around. I am pretty close to the border here so I can zip across to the US and save on import fees

If you use CBI in Niagara Falls as a mailbox. You can have stuff shipped there and pick it up on Saturdays. They only charge $5.95 for accepting a package.

I ended up buying this one. 332 US with the plates and a tail stock. I will have to get the chuck as well.

They are shipping it to my home address with free shipping. I thought about one a rotating head but really could not justify it. If I need one at a later date I can get that easy enough. I am setting up my shop from scratch and at some point you have to draw a line. The First LC-50RS mill came with exactly zero tooling although the lathe came with a fair bit.

Thanks for the help guys.

Looks good, noticed that it's a 6" table but your original post was about an 8" table. Did you reconsider on size?

Yes. I only had so much to spend. Balance it all out you know. Better half is starting to get suspicious with all the new stuff in the shop and I really am not going to be building anything really big at this point. If I have to upgrade later I guess I do but for now this is good. Need to get a chuck for it now.

Just be aware that 6" is not much real-estate for a part and clamps. You may have to make an adapter plate to fit on the top of the table that is much larger for larger work.

I was thinking of that as well. The other problem I have is I am running out of real estate in the shop. Its pretty big but still.
