I'm looking for information on the Quorn Tool and Cutter Grinder. Does anyone still sell the book and casting kits for this tool?

Mcgyver 02-14-2006, 11:25 PM check out (google) model engineering sites/suppliers, the book and castings are available, buy they book and start saving your pennies for the casting. its a great project, but the castings have become so expensive that I'd either 1) make it as a fabrication (normalized after welding) or 2) pick up a good used T&C grinder and start making accessories (that’s what i did and you’ll end up with more of a machine). yes cast iron is better from both a stability and dampening viewpoint, but it won't matter for this machine imo, normalizing will give you a stable piece of steel and cutting forces are so small i don't think dampening is much of an issue RotarySMP 02-15-2006, 04:11 AM There is an active Yahoo group for the Quorn. http://groups.yahoo.com/group/quorn_owners/ torker 02-16-2006, 12:39 AM mtech...I have a winzip file with a bunch of drawings etc for the Quorn.

Russ Sorry Russ -- I didn't know that CNCZone turns your email contact off by default. DOH! :eek: My "public" email is now enabled. torker 10-29-2006, 05:01 PM GUYS! HOPE YOU ALL CATCH THIS!!!!! I've lost the file with the Quorn/Brooks grinder info. My computer crashed awhile back and I lost a bunch of stuff. Perhaps one of the couple guys I sent this to can send it to you. Thanks!

Russ, I enabled my CNCZone email after your post, but you never sent me the files :( I have the Brooks articles from MEW -- is that what you have? The Chaddock Quorn articles are posted on the Quorn_Owners group. Contact me off list and I'll send you what I have... Robert |
