Ha, Just going through some of my old posts. Can belive how much chit I have acumulated in my garage since then.......lol.

I like the idea, right now it is fully adjustable to make a cut just about anywhere on a rim. When i get it out next time i might look into your idea, maby it would make setup faster :-D

there have been many times i have thought about trying the cutter out on this dam phone.....lol

was using the table and remembered my phone had video.

cutting.....

Yup :-D I have jigs for bridge truck and 900 series wheels. Will have one soon for the hemmis.

It not just for cutting hemmit wheels, there are many other types I cut and some are cut through the sides. I do a lot of wheels and I enjoy building stuff. Thanks for the reply. I used a similar idea as yours to cut circles before

Lol, go figure. had it running today and something went wrong in the motor.........tore it apart only to find the first driven gear is made out of bakelite WTF! and of corse it was stripped Dam! called bodine and they said $100 um, no. well made another one out of brass and now where moving...

and more

few more

Ok so this weekend i got a lil more time to work on it. Took a few more pics too. Next is the drive unit, i will be shure to take pics of it as well.

Sorry I have not posted more pics, I haven't had much time to do anything but I have started on the drive unit and yes the torch will be stationary but adjustable.

That's where I got the bearing balls from, It's Applied Industrial now, thanks though.

never messed with ring mounts, I guess i will have to check them out. Thanks

Ok here are some. Went with the ball mill and the "biuld your own bearing" The top plate and bottom plate are 1/2 inch and the bearing cage is 3/8 with 20 5/8 balls 18 degrees apart. It should work. I only had 4 hours to work on it but i will post more when i get more done.

I will get some pics soon. Just looks like a pile of scrap at the moment.

I would like it to be capable of 500lb but its more so for stability .

its a 9X42, Thanks for the info Supermechanic, Thanks, this was the easy out i was looking for. Now i dont know what would be a better way to go.

Nonotagain, I will have to look but i dont think the mill is big eough, I know my Index would do it but of corse its not under power. The bridgeport is smaller but I will try tomarrow.

Where did you find this? SS? fee bay?
