Dividing head

Hi All

Just wanted to let you know that I have now made a gear depthing tool.

Next step will be to make at test cut of a pinion and a wheel to see if my tools will do the job :-\

The slots on the clamp arm... how did you make the slot from the shaft hole longitudinally towards the pin end???

The only way I can think of is that you slipped a fine-bladed jeweler's saw into the hole and went at it! If so, you did a very nice job of it, it looks machine cut.

Hi Swede

Not sure what you mean, but I made two parallel slots in my mill, with a setup like this:

I think Swede was referring to your dividing head arm as shown in the updated photo. I noticed that slot too and am curious how you did it. Very nice work by the way.

Hi
The slots were made by use of a junior hacksaw
