Unfortunately, Celso Ari, the video is private.

Nice angle plates and thanks for sharing, I made something similar a few years ago but borrowed my friends angleplate when machining the two large sides.

Thor

Interesting project, I like watching these for tips on how to do different things.

I could not understand how you ensured that they were at right angles.

The machining/grinding of the faces seemed to be left out of the video.

Norman, when I did this many years ago I started by machining a pair of circular squares on the lathe, clamped them vertically to the mill table, and then clamped the square to be machined to those. That way you don't need an accurate square to start with.

Russell

Sorry, but my (mother tongue) English cannot cope with circular squares.

Tim

How about cylindrical squares then Tim?

Mike

Harold Hall calls them Cylidrical Squares, they work well.

Your old fingers were flying so fast that you omitted the ‘n’

MichaelG.

Michael, you spotted my typo, my old eyes didn't.

Thor

Oh, them. Then you don't indeed need an accurate square to start with, but you do need a pair of accurately 'right' cylinders. That's right as in right triangle.

All cleared up now - thanks.

Tim

... a sight for Thor eyes?
