just need a digital readout to make your life easier :geek: .
but as you say nice to be able to set something up without having to worry about getting it done in one go.
with a Bridgeport and a small lathe there is not much you cant get done. :thumbup:

It's high on the list and hopefully will have one before it gets fully assembled, next time Enco runs a decent sale I will order one. Kurt vise and a power feed is also on the list. I already scored the proper right angle milling attachment for it, the Excelo has a 3.562" quill vs the 3.375" Bridgeport quill. I got lucky finding one for a decent price over having to deal with trying to find one with enough meat to bore out to the correct quill size.

So now that the mill is going I figured it was time to make something for the bike. This brake rotor has been staring at me for a long time just asking for something to clamp on to it.

Image

This is how it started

Image

Image

Image

Image

Here it is all finished up

Image

Image

This is what will provide the clamping power. I think it should be a little bit better than the stock setup ;) . I still need to order the proper hardware for it.

Awesome mod of that triple man.
Well worthy of a month in the next calendar if you care to donate a pic or two.
