In this video I build a tailstock die holder for my lathe.
I built a crude tailstock die holder years ago, but I sold it with my old hercus lathe. I decided it is about time that I replaced it with a newer, better version.
Yes, there are plenty of simpler methods to constrain the part without slotting, I just wanted an excuse to try out the slotter!
I'm still convincing myself that voice overs are a good format, part of me wonders if I just make silent videos with minimal talking. Let me know what you think ⬇
