Mini English wheel

[Martin Hocking]

Top wheel and bead roller wheel hub mounted on shaft and ground to zero (.0000015) run out
As hub is 3 morse taper repeatability should be very good

That’s a lot of zeros!
I’m still getting my head around this ultra precision stuff, that’s a squillionth right?

So is that a red or green Rizla?

So is that a red or green Rizla?

1/10 of a Blue, I’d imagine.

1/10 of a Blue, I’d imagine.

1/66 of a green

I suspect that is an accurate measurement…

Big sign on the wall of the engineering inspections and measurements room at our local college, back in the 70's.

Near enough is not good enough, but dead on is near enough.

42” throat pattern started
This will be the ultimate expression of what I think makes a good machine
I have to make this as customer insisted upon a deposit. And I always stick to my word
