Thread: Huron NU3 Milling m/c adaptor

Hopefully i have sent some photo's of the drilling / milling head that the adaptor fits between (INT 40 male one end and 8 tooth drive dog other end) hope this makes it clearer as previously thought i would possibly make one useing a drill chuck INT 40 drive turned down parellel and make a drive gear out of some EN8' ish material or what would be better

Sorry again for not being clearer and thanks again for all your feedback Steve img_20161220_165407.jpgB

Hi all and thanks for the feedback

To Bikepete there is one on ebay item no eBay item number:

221963367303
The one i have to make one for is similar to this one showing the adaptor next to the head i don't now of the heads origin
I was thinking of getting a drill chuck arbor without the chuck and turning it down parallel l was then going to turn up a drive dog and mill the teeth or mill the gaps and fit key steel and then fit to chuck adaptor

Hi I have been asked if i could make an adaptor for a NU4 Huron milling m/c vertical drilling or milling head attachment with a 40 INT drive

Has anybody got one or any information about one please

Or what would be the best material to make one out of Ie. EN8

I have taken dimensions to make one but if i could lay my hands on one it would be better and easyier

Thanks steve butler

In the latest copy of ME the Barclay well tanks of the great war part 10 by Terence Holland my question is reguarding the quartering jig fig 38

I can see that one drive dog sits up against the vertical part on the left hand side of the jig as shown and is on the same center line as the axle center and also that on the right hand side of the the jig the drive dog sits on the top of the horizontal part i can see that. But my query is shouldnt the horizontal plane be on the same center line as the axle centeres and not as shown above it no dimension is shown for this hieght

Or have i missed something ?

Thread: Potty overcrank engine

Part 14 ? on my drawing there is a thread 20mm long on one end and 5mm long on the other 3mm looks a bit short? sorry

Thanks again SB

Hi Stew

Another dimensional query

On starting to make the cylinder fabrication it shows a cylinder centerlines dimension of 66.3 mm on checking the crank dimensions and adding up your dimensions it adds up to cylinder center lines of 60.4 mm is this correct or am i missing something

Thanks SB

PS your lads and dads simple mill engine is a very nice little and i enjoyed making it and it runs superbly

Has anyone used a bambi bb24v compressor to run stationary engine,s like helping dads current and earlier models

Or is it better to go for a cheaper noisy type and spend the savings on sound proofing

This is my first post and would appreciate any advice
