This is a graduating tool that i made frome a Hemingway kit

I mounted the rotary tabe on the face plate

This is the setup to cut some new dials for my milling machine, i am going to cut 62.5 graduations

I used the face plate to hold the rotary table. The dividing plate is set on the 41 hole plate, to get 62.5 = 1 turn + 18 holes

Here i am using my Myford Chuck Adaptor to hold the dial you can just see the Coke can being used as a shim to pack it out
