Leadscrew Cover Springs
Fri, 06 Nov 2009 09:13:55 +0000
Does anyone know of a source of cover springs to go over a leadscrew,
I'd like to add them to my lathe but can't find any source. The wound
flat strip coil-spring type that I'm after used to be made by
Tensator, but these days they only make Post Office barriers and the
like, no 'engineering' production :-(

I'm after one of these but the only ones a trawl of google and the toy
catalogues has turned up is this glorified pair of mole grips;

Garden Fork
Sun, 1 Nov 2009 07:28:07 -0800 (PST)
Not exactly a model one. Sorry, but a neighbour of mine has broken a
Garden fork tine, spike, whatever, off. and he is desperate to get it
repaired, as it belonged to his father. It is an end piece and has
broken on the right angle bend. The break surface looks a bit like
cast iron, but I doubt that it is, as in ...

turning perspex
Wed, 28 Oct 2009 15:30:40 -0700 (PDT)
Hi all,
I need to turn a perspex disk about 50mm dia. as a replacement speedo
glass on an old Yamaha. What can I use to stick in to a piece of wood
mounted in my lathe chuck?
Got to be something that will stick well enough for turning but come
off and not leave a mark...
Cheers for any suggestions!

Diesel tachometer senser (mechanically driven)
Wed, 28 Oct 2009 21:45:23 -0000
Please have a look at the first item in this link:
http://www.aetnaengineering.com/tachometer-senders-sensors.asp
I wonder if anyone could point me towards a supplier of something similar in
the UK?
It's for a Rolls Royce (Perkins) Eagle engine but I could probably adapt
anything 1/2 suitable to fit. Too ...
