With the Boxford restoration complete, it was time to start making some accessories. First on the list was a carriage stop. I had a look at a number of designs and then saw Tom Borowicz's reversable carriage stop in Metal Working Book 3. It was a good "machining work out" with screwcutting, deep pocket milling, knurling and dividing (50 graduations on the thumbwheel). I was quite pleased with the end result. It still needs painting to match the lathe but that can wait.

Cheers,

Adrian

Now there is an excellent project well executed. Awesome. Super photos.

Karma point for you!
 
The plans are found in MetalWorking Book 3 from Villages Press. It would be inappropriate for me to post copies from the book.

I did make my own working drawings in Autocad Inventor. Not sure the legality of passing those on (with suitable credit to the designer Tom Borowicz)?

Cheers,

Adrian
