Thread: Micrometres
24/02/2020 10:49:18

Hi Folks.

I wonder if anyone can help clear up a question about micrometre anvils having a bevel ground on them.

I have bought a Mititoyo instrument and the anvils are perfectly flat leaving them with a very sharp cutting edge which I find marks the work even when being very careful.

All 5 of my other Mititoyo and Moor and Wright instruments have a bevel ground on the anvil edge. Is my new Micrometre faulty ?

Thanks

Hi Folks.

A friend of mine has several vintage motorcycles and has a need to machine a large crown or radius into replacement bolts he is attempting to make . His ball turning attachment cannot reproduce the large curves he needs and he wonders if anyone can describe a possible solution for him. Many thanks

Thread: Gauge Plate / spring steel
27/05/2016 14:31:16

Hi Folks.

I would like to make a couple of old fashioned spring steel bands used to check brake shoe / cylinder operation on older cars with the drum off and need to find out what thickness will work the best and where to buy the material from.

Does any member have experience of these devices.

Thanks
