I just finished my tool turret, still working on the mount to get the height right on my lathe.
I converted a Grizzly G9972Z to cnc and made my tool turret with some help from Bob on here.
It works ok, just have not done any serious cutting yet because it is not exactly center. I will post pictures
and video links for those interested.
My question is,
Is anyone else interested in plans or purchasing a 4 tool, 4 Drill/boring tool turret for their lathe project?
Mine has a 5 in Diameter head, the lathe swing is 11 inches and that works out good for me.
I can change the diameter up to 7 in, but that would be a 14 in swing lathe.
I am looking to see if others are seriously interested to buy plans or the actual tool turret ready for install on your lathe.
Plans I was thinking about $50.00 and the tool turret ready to install about $400.00 for a 5 in with 1/2 or 5/8 tool holder slots
and about $600 for a 7 in with 5/8 to 1 in tool holder slots.
If so let me know and if there is some interest I will definitely get it done for you.
