Thank you for taking the time, effort and expense to do this review - I had my doubts given the price point, my expectations aren't excessive, however it looks to be very accurate for the things that matter

Yessir it certainly exceeded my expectations.

Just purchased mine this morning. Been watching it every day for nearly 2 months for it to come back in stock.

@LetsRogerThat arrived yesterday. 2 days postage, awesome. Basically followed all your advice when unpacking, cleaning, inspecting, and prepping. Only thing I haven't done is dialed the surfaces as I'm still waiting on my new dial indicator and base, and my surface plate. Need some gear oil for the shaft, tried way oil instead. Not much change. Still, a smooth great size rotary table for the price. So far also has my vote of confidence. Thank you for your review, it was my deciding factor in trying this device.

@@dutchylt that’s awesome Dutch. Im glad I could help. Keep in touch. I still beed to make a setup plate for mine and I’m curious to know what you’ll use/make. Gilles

@LetsRogerThat cheers, I have a few projects for it. But main use will be to make adaptor plates, but I docneed it to mill convex curves on the top of alloy engine mounts. I have to make a custom adaptor plate assembly for my ute in the picture to convert the T56 to AWD.

Thanks for the review, I have yet to purchase this rotary table so it’s good to know about its quality. What I didn’t like about it was the manner in which they machined the grooves on the rotary plate: too deep and 5 grooves instead of 3 would have been better.

Very nice review. They make that mill table and sell it under a lot of different names. I have one identical to that but it was not a Vevor. I think your next purchase will be the plates so you can index for gear cutting. Thanks for the video keep on keeping on.

I find it best to give a little backlash when engaging the eccentric cam, saves excess wear and as you generally only turn in one direction slight backlash is not an issue. It does look like a dead copy of the Vertex, but then so do many rebadged ones too.

@LetsRogerThat Жыл бұрын

That's great tip Chris, thank you. Yes they all look alike. But incredibly enough the machining is really good and the tolerances are phenomenal considering the price. I'll certainly keep an eye on its performance as time goes on. Gilles

I have a 6in Vevor rotary table and the quality is also great for the price, at the time I bought it there wasn’t an eight inch to choose from but I’m very tempted to get the 8in, like you said, very cheap, I’m in Australia and it’s just under $300 AU

I stripped the gear in mine. It was a grizzly but I suspect it's the same table. It works good for positioning but not strong enough for cutting an arch with an end mill

@LetsRogerThat Жыл бұрын

That’s an important observation Mark. I’ll make sure to be careful when I test it further. Gilles

@bhein67 Жыл бұрын

Just curious, will it be an issue with getting swarf in the rotary table when your milling in your vise so close by? May not be any different than milling on the rotary table. Just my .02. Looks like its pretty good value for the money. Curious to see some projects on that piece of kit. Cheers from SK

I intend to cover it when not in use to prevent dwarf issues. And hopefully I will soon have a project for it. Gilles

Great reveiw on that 8" RT. I aquired a Vertex 8" RT a couple of years ago and it is a clone of yours or vice/versa. Very good unit for the money IMHO.

@LetsRogerThat Жыл бұрын

Thanks. I think its great value as well. Given the amount of us it will get in my hobby shop, buying a $2000 table makes no sense. Inexpensive doesn't necessarily mean bad quality. It'll be a mater of good maintenance to keep it in good condition. Gilles

Great review. Are you happy with the size for an RF 30 mill. Thoughts on 6in instead?

@LetsRogerThat Жыл бұрын

Thanks Adam. Yes I’m glad I chose the 8 inch. I thought a 6 would have been nice but as it turns out having the extra space came in handy. Plus, the 8 inch is cheaper than the 6 inch.

@HolzMichel Жыл бұрын

you missed two critical checks: the first - to see of the table top is on the same plane as the base. you should set up a dial indicator on the mill and pass the thing back&forth to see of there is any slope to it. best to lay a precision parallel on the table plate as to avoid the finger of the dial indicator dipping into the grooves. inversely you can mount the rotary table onto the mill table upside down and run your dial indicator across the base plate as it faces up the other check is concentricity. a pretty grind on those things doesn't necessarily mean they run perfectly round. the center hole usually has a morse taper in it and that would be the first check, the second part of that check would be the outer perimeter
