Outboard Turning

 

Indexing

 

 

 

 

 

 

Outboard turning is usually done when stock diameter is greater than 12''. For the size of this particular lathe and its minimum turning speed, we recommend a maximum diameter of 17'' and a maximum thickness of 2''.

Figure 24 depicts the lathe setup at 90˚ for turn- ing a bowl using the tool rest extension supplied.

Figure 25 depicts the lathe setup at 180˚ for turn- ing a bowl using a free standing tool rest (not sup- plied).

The headstock spindle indexes every 15˚ by inserting the indexing pin into one of the holes in the headstock. Indexing is desirable when locking the workpiece in position such as when routing flutes. The spindle is drilled every 30˚ and the headstock housing has two holes that are drilled 15˚ apart. To index the spindle:

1.Insert the pin through the hole in the hous- ing.

2.Rotate the spindle by hand until the pin drops into a hole in the spindle (Figure 26).

Never start the lathe with the indexing pin inserted in the indexing hole. Serious per- sonal injury may occur.
