@GreenTwin Please forgive my ignorance. What is the valving system on the left side of steam chest in the photo of post #26?

Great idea. Will check into it in my spare time. The numbers should work. Every thing is out of the Machinists Handbook.

Simply didn’t take the time to wipe them out. I created these sheets for work, years ago, and use the macros for various functions of my work. These were paired down and cleaned up a bit to submit.

If you run into a snag let me know.

Hey fellow Wyomingite

Very nice build. Congratulate the young lady.

I submit for the members a thread calculation spread sheet. The spreadsheet does use macros.

One other way is to use three of the four jaws to clamp a vee block. The fourth jaw will hold the square stock against the vee block. This way you only have to loosen one jaw and gives a positive register for the stock.
