    Right Angle Head on a BTC

    Has anyone used a right angle head on a BTC. I have a job which could be done easily, if I could use a right angle head. Experience, ideas?

    Thanks,
    Chip

    I see no reason in the world it wouldn't work, the biggest obstacle would be the adapter you would need to build to drive the angle head. Maybe you could replace the R8 in a bridgeport one with a strait 3/4 shaft, who knows but I bet it could be done. Good Luck Jon P.
