Milling Small Parts

[HBilly1022]

Bill, here's a pic of the finished lathe stop. I ended up abandoning the small part and went with a small bolt instead. I've never used a lathe stop before but right after I installed it, I used it several times and really like having one now. It saved me from a possible crash and that alone is worth the time spent making it.

I like your replacement part. I used one when I assigned to one lathe for a long time. I used angle iron and c-clamp to make emergency stop because of way designs are not the same. Nothing like your temporary stop popping off while your watching the tool bit is cutting.

Nice job
