I am currently knocking up a handle for Betchet45, I thought i would keep you all up to date on the progress as i manufacture it, maybe with a few action picture to go with it.

Very nice...

I recognize that handle!

 

[RedHorseman]

Just realised I spelled bechet45s name wrong. I apologise.

 

[Bechet]

I hadn't noticed. Betchet, eh? Betchit?

The model looks sexier now! A Swing to its hips. :icon_razz:

I recognize that handle!

Shiny! Shiny! I want!

 

[RedHorseman]

I just want to double check. Is it 4 or six sided?

 

[Bechet]

Definitely six sided. See my photos not the one above - which deceives the eye.

I just want to double check. Is it 4 or six sided?

This video may show off the handle a bit better than a photo:

[RedHorseman]

Thanks, that does clear it up.

Lovely work there! I was litterally thinking 'who makes handles around here'.
Beautiful.

Progress so far, ready to go in the dividing head for milling. [attachment=13817]

 

[Bechet]

Wow! I love her hips!

 

[RedHorseman]

I'll get to milling tomorrow then. Pity I need to fix the fucking dividing head first, but that's life I guess. Always a new challenge [emoji22]

If I remember Workshop Technology correctly, that's a plate full of holes that enables you to make 100.5 teeth on a 100 tooth wheel. Turns out I was at good at that. Six and a bit flats on a hex should be easy!
