Hi folks, my name is David. I am from Canada ...eh.
After reading the thread from Bernard (aka Dranreb) about making his larger cross feed dial, I decided it was time to try and do something with the tiny one on my Atlas 618. My objects were:
1 No permanent change / alteration to the 618
2 100% reversible
3 No buying anything.. must be made from shop supplies.
4 Functional.. of course.
Materials at hand: aluminum 6061-T6, free machining brass rod, all sorts of fasteners etc.
So here...
