Man, you guys are killing me with this 4th axis stuff, I gotta get one for my 770
That is very cool. Nice video, cracks me up on the table mounted camera makes it look like the column is moving X and Y and the table is stationary.

When I grow up I want to do that too! I just gotta learn cad/cam, and get the 4th axis, and the tool changer, and more tooling, probe, ect, (does this ever end?) Really nice, I like the tool tab trick.

Cool, did you make all the parts? If not, where did you get the components? I would like to start using dovetail fixtures on my 4th also.
Thanks,
tony

I made all the parts, Less the bolts and springs. I can post a few pictures of the dovetail fixture when I get home from work.

wow thats really awesome, why did you put dovetails on both sides? i assume one side is threaded and is teh nut while the other side is counterbored for a shcs. i guess you could have machined a ledge and then put the dovetails only on one side?

That’s exactly how it works, I use the 2 pins that are on the centerline of the fixture to locate the stock.

I really like your fixture. Are you willing to share the model or prints with the dimensions?
