[QUOTE="foreign, post: 1090063, member: 11896"] I have a question to folks. How did you make the spider on your spindle? If you have a short spindle sticking out the left of the lathe then you can make a slip fit spider and then that is relatively easy. But the length of my spindle sticking out after i remove my safety cover is about 5". If i could put my screws near the bearing then i can do shorter barrels so the way i was thinking was to make a "guide out of aluminium and then hand drill through it to guide the drill. Wondering if people have other ideas? How did you do yours? Obviously i want the screws 90 degrees to each other and meeting square in the center. Cheers [/QUOTE]
