Rotary table problems

[kwoodhands]

Have you contacted Grizzly? I have a RT made in India that is accurate. This is the 6" model but do not remember who I bought it from. Possible Little Machine Shop, I also have another RT that I also bought from Little Machine Shop. This is a small 4" RT that does not use dividing plates.
Possibly Grizzly may make good on your purchase From the condition you describe it sounds like a boat anchor and may not be fixable.

Hi,

Below is the link for Shoba/ Soba rotary tables from India. Generally have good reviews.
They are available in UK/ Europe. Dont know about US. You can try online shopping.

Have a 12 inch phase 2 no leaks at all with it

Also the phase 2 has been a very good table very accurate. The only thing I wish they would change is the way the t-slots are indexed. Wished they would have started with a t-slot on zero then indexed them around the table so each slot would been on a number every 60 degrees

Quite some companies out here that make (or sell?) those old style rotary tables. There seem to be no "new style" manual rotaries in existence.
I there any good design for a shop made one? It should be small and nice. It would be a miracle if we cannot make one for 10x the price of a store bought item.

Here are some links I found in my useless internet research, procrastination is king. All companies are in the same area as Vertex and I am not related to a single one of them.

Vertex:
already liked above

https://www.detron-rotary.com/en/index.htmlOnly one example for the many CNC rotary table makers located in Taichung.

https://safeway-vise.com/en/product-category/cc-en/Mainly selling other fixturing, but also sell rotary tables (rebranded? who knows)

Regarding a shop-made rotary table:

I followed this build on this forum back in the day:

https://www.homemodelenginemachinist.com/threads/building-a-120mm-rotary-table.8472/
I thought it was good and the builder was good at making tooling when he needed or wanted it.

Be aware that the poster is no longer on this forum.
