something puzzles me, how does the tool center itself on the shaft, |
The tool is centered with the tool post and the cross slide for vertical and horizontal adjustment. Also when you tighten it up it will correct and place itself around the round bar. Very easy to use. I kept it on my original toolpost and not on the QTP. I had to place a 2 3/4" x 1/2" x 1/8" spacer under the knurler tool to raise it up to center. That can be fixed by using a QTP or bolting it up to the aluminum block like the author did.
In my pics, I did not adjust it 100%, the wheels are just a lttle over the center point. One turn on the cross slide and it would have been corrected. Just for picture taking.
It works great.
