There's a limit of 4 pictures or graphics per post so you can't show a whole album in one post, though you could provide a live link to the site.

Also, to avoid proliferation of threads by one's and two's it would be better if you added another post to the thread you started earlier. And in Photobucket you can click on the "IMG" box that shows up when you hover over your picture to copy the link to the clip board for pasting in your message post.

Nevertheless, this is a sort of fix with more of the work you were trying to show.

SS you should post this in the home made tool section .

Great idea.

How tightly is the workpiece held during that process?
...i.e. does it turn freely by hand? Stiffly by hand? A real struggle to turn? Takes two men and a boy...?

It Turn Free By Hand

Hi,

Very nicely done!! Did you make the cutter out of tool steel and then harden it? How many passes did it take to cut the gear to full depth?

Rest assured, I will steal your idea if I should ever need it. That is, if I can remember it.

stress proof acme lefthand thread cut 6 grooves in milling machine

3/8 endmill just below threads depth relieve back side then

feed crossfeed straight in to gear blank 0.50 thousands then

another 0.50 until you get the depth you want NEVER
BACK OUT UNTIL YOU ARE DONE




GOOD LUCK SNUCE

Those look like nylatron or nylon gears.
