WHATS IN A HEMINGWAY KIT?

Check the descriptions offered in our catalogue. In general, we aim to supply everything you will need to complete a given project. You simply add your time, experience and ingenuity!
Materials - Our suppliers have been chosen on a basis of quality first.

Castings We now manage almost 400 patterns and core boxes! Both of the foundries that we use have been trading in the UK Midland for over 130 years. All box work and core placing is completed by hand and the castings are poured into greensand. After fettling, all castings are shot or bead blasted to improve their appearance. Defects can occur but are generally caught at the foundry or by Hemingway. Please check your castings closely before you invest in their machining. Do get in touch if you have any concerns. A level of surface defect is unavoidable but should not encroach on a major datum. Bar Stock Hemingway Kits holds around 4 tonnes of bar materials, chiefly in imperial dimensions. We stock over 60 different sections of steel, iron, brass, bronze, aluminium and Nylon ranging from 1/16 to 6 x 1 flats. A majority of our steel is manufactured by British Steel (Corus, Tata). We always favour free cutting grades. Please, when your kit arrives, check through the drawings and plan your use of material. It is not only the profit motive that causes us to limit lengths, we are also conscious that it will be inefficient for customers to have to machine or saw off large amounts of material to arrive at a finished dimension! Fasteners We hold over 60 different varieties of heads, threads and lengths. A majority of our kits call for imperial fasteners, ranging from 8BA to 3/8 BSW. For this reason we only stock these imperial fasteners and a few metric sizes. Sitting here in Britain, this seems reasonable; customers have built up a stock of taps and dies that support this outlook. However, sitting in Germany or America, our position may not seem reasonable! Doubtless you will want to translate imperial threads into Course and Fine Metric, UNC and UNF and this will not affect the success of your project. Gears For all tools that require gears, they are supplied with the kit in blank form. That is to say the teeth themselves are fully finished leaving you to complete a few features such as threads, bores and support diameters. The worm and worm wheel pairs required to complete the dividing tools and rotary tables are intended by the designers to be generated as helicals to a pressure angle of 14 . They require dedicated assets and, with low volume runs, may seem unusually expensive. On the positive side however, the quality of our UK sources is indeed first class. CNC Sheet Material The Worden Mk 3 Tool and Cutter Grinder is a truly great product, made economically possible through the flexibility of CNC processing. The gauge of the pressings is around 1/8, affording excellent rigidity in action. Having large dedicated pressings on your bench may well be a novelty. Please remember that many of industry's worst hand injuries come from handling unprepared sheet materials! Wear gloves and file off sharp edges as a very first step. If you rely on off-hand tool grinding today, you should consider the Worden Mk3? Other Stock Items Hemingway Kits arrive complete! To back this claim we hold a huge variety of often difficult to find items. Along with bearings, bushes, springs and arbors, we have more exotic items such as gun-sight graticules, blended woollen felt, music wire and 5-core electrical cable. Wherever practical, we source directly from well-established UK manufacturers.
Drawing & Construction Notes

This is an area where we feel we add significant value for the small workshop owner. In all humilitywe think we are the best in the business by a long chalk!
With our investments in top-end CAD systems, digital photography and colour laser printing, we have raised our designer original works to the latest industry levels. Drawings are generated from digital solid models, which are used to check all assemblies for fit and function. Isometric, sectional and detail views are included, together with a full bill of materials and machining sequences for any complex operations. Our construction notes, generally composed by the designer, allow you to understand the importance of each set-up and how it fits within the overall plan. Typically, the notes include photographs, which are invaluable for describing an operation. Please note however that for the Universal Pillar Tool (UPT) and Versatile Dividing Head (VDH), George Thomas book, Workshop Techniques, provides all of the necessary construction notes. Whilst Hemingway drawings are included with the VDH projects, you will need to use the book for the UPT.
WHAT EQUIPMENT DO I NEED?

Our customer's are armed with anything from a leather-belted 1920's lathe to a full CNC arsenal. We have attempted below to show the base level of equipment required to complete our kits. Without being told youll know already that quality counts in the workshop and in general, He with the most toys, wins!. Major Assets
! ! !
A Centre Lathe, typically of at least 3 centre height (7 Swing) and 13 between centres. Screw cutting facilities are essential for many of the kits. A Pillar Drill, typically of at least drill capacity with a motor of at least hp. A facility for Light Milling; a good vertical slide, bolted to your lathe's cross-slide, will suffice for all but a few of the kits. However, if you do have a dedicated Milling Machine, your progress will be at a much faster pace and a few of the project will require this. If you're in the market for one, we'd suggest a vertical mill of at least 1 hp, 14 of X-travel and a speed range of 100 - 2,000 rpm.
Other Workshop Basics Leaving aside the obvious paraphernalia, you'll need:
! ! ! ! !
A good solid Bench Vice of say 4 capacity or better. Micrometers and a 6 Vernier Calliper, the best you can afford. You should be able to determine down to 0.00025 (2 tenths) below an inch and 0.001 above an inch. Dial Test & Dial Gauge Indicators, try for a DGI of at least travel and resolution of 0.0005. Go to town on your DTI; our has a total travel of 0.009 and resolves to 0.00005 ( of a tenth). You'll pay about 60 for a famous brand. A Surface Plate, perhaps not essential for every kit but sooner or later you'll need a standard surface. If you have a flat bed lathe, you may get away with using it as a surface plate. Otherwise, a piece of plate glass or a second hand or imported table are equally good. 10 x 12 should do it. Taps, Dies, Drills & Reamers, You'll need taps for BA (8,6,4 & 2), BSF (1/4, 5/16 & 3/8), BSW (5/16 & 3/8) and an some ME sizes (e.g. x 40tpi BSW) . You'll need dies for the larger sizes only (2BA to 3/8 BSW). If you're biased towards Metric and UNF/UNC, its fine to substitute these. Buy Number drills or Metric equivalents to support all of you taps. If you can find a set of machine reamers from 1/8 to 5/8 by 16ths, you'll avoid a number of fine-boring exercises. A clever man solves a problem; a wise man avoids it - Albert Einstein. A Blowtorch, a few kits require silver soldering of components and many include silver steels that need hardening. Buy propane, NOT butane.

MANIPULATING TOOLS
Small Hole Boring Tools

Inherently centered from the top slide, these tools allow boring to be started from just a 1/4" drilled hole. Tension, induced by the pushrod, makes even the smallest tool surprisingly rigid. There are two boring bars of each size, 1/4", 5/16" and 3/8" diameter. One bar for boring/facing the other for internal screw cutting/recessing. The kit includes 3 iron casting for the tool blocks, steel, fasteners, HSS cutting tools, a long series drill (needed to machine the boring bars) drawings and construction notes. HK1010 33.40
HK1010
Between Centres Boring Bar

These three Boring Bars ( x 10, x 13 and 1 x 13) will meet the needs of most small engineering workshops. Each bar has a dedicated micrometer, which can be accurately positioned over the end of the cutting tool to allow precise measurement and advancement by 0.001 increments. Supplied as a kit of easily machined parts including FCMS bar, gunmetal micrometer castings, steel for the carriers, HSS cutting tools, drawing and instructions. HK1020 58.50
HK1020
Speed Increaser
The majority of milling machines available to small workshop owners have a top spindle speed of less than 3,000 rpm. For most general milling purposes this is fine, but if you use cutters with a diameter of less than 2mm, this is not adequate. These smaller cutters are stock-in-trade for the clock maker for profiling, crossing out and engraving in brass. The Speed Increaser, designed by Dick Stephen, is a simple, oil filled epicyclic gear box, offering a 3X speed increase. It can be quickly fitted to any spindle to give an output speed of up to 9,000 rpm. Please note that the design provides an output rotation OPPOSITE to input rotation. Consequently, you will need to be able to reverse your machine's spindle to use conventional cutters. Order our reversing switch (SP 1018) if required. Along with drawings (metric only) and construction notes, the kit comes complete with all necessary material including gears, bearings, steel, bronze, and fasteners. HK1690 91.00

Rear Tool Post

The virtues of parting-off from the rear of the cross-slide need hardly be mentioned. The casting bolts down solidly to the cross-slide and supports a steel turret which can be indexed precisely by 180. The kit contains material for you to produce either George Thomas' original turret, holding two parting-off blades (SP 1013 & SP 1014) or the alternative Riley turret (pictured), which accepts one parting-off blade (SP 1013) and one standard inverted lathe tool. The kit includes casting, fasteners and springs, together with the steel required for either the GHT or Riley turret. Suitable for the Myford Super 7, ML7 and ML10 lathes this item can be modified in height to suit many lathes up to 3 centre height. HK1070 37.40
HK1071
Larger Rear Tool Post

The Rear Tool Post, one of George Thomas' most elegant designs, has become a vital addition to smaller lathes for the past 30 years. Hemingway is now pleased to provide a new version, suitable for larger lathes. Suitable for lathes with up to around 6 centre height, the kit includes the main casting and all material to complete a substantial Rear Tool Post for your Boxford, South Bend, Atlas, Chester, Harrison, Myford geared-head, Colchester, Warco, Grizzly. plus many more. The Larger Rear Tool Post is designed to engage with either a single T slot or a pair of tapped holes towards the rear of your cross slide. Whilst the turret is designed for a 3/32" parting blade (SP 1013) and an additional inverted tool, it is really a blank-canvas for any variety of insert blade holder or form tool. HK1071 49.30
MANIPULATING TOOLS
Gibraltar Tool Post

Designed by Tubal Cain, who spent a lifetime in the engineering industry and was well known for his contributions to the Model Engineer. This is a substantial, no-nonsense tool post fitting directly onto the boring tables of the Myford Series 7 lathes, and is very suitable for taking heavy cuts or when working with an overhung tool. It can accept industrial HSS and Carbide Insert tools up to , a feature that affords additional rigidity and economy. We supply the castings together with drawings, construction notes and all necessary materials. HK1090 33.00
HK1090
Hand Turning Rest

It is often preferable to use a hand turning rest, if only to finish a component. Thus the change from using the compound slide to a hand rest should be quick and efficient. In this design the one handle serves not only to lock the casting to the Myford Series 7 lathe bed but also to lock the tool rest. The complete rest can be fitted or removed from the lathe in a matter of seconds. Three castings are supplied, the lower or base casting in aluminium, so as not to mark the lathe bed, the other two in cast iron. Fasteners, springs and all steel sections are included together with drawings and construction notes. You'll need a No. 505 Woodruff Cutter (SP 1000) to complete this kit. HK1330 50.10
HK1330
Retracting Tool Holder

George Thomas' Retracting Tool Holder readily clamps to a 4 tool turret or a Dickson tool holder. Although proportioned to suit a 3 lathe, it performs perfectly in much larger equipment. The principal use is for external screw cutting. At the end of a threading pass the little ball handle is flicked backwards, whereupon the tool retracts clear of the thread. It is unnecessary to wind back the feed handle of either the cross or top-slides, thus the exact position of the tool is never lost or forgotten. At the start of the next pass, the little ball handle is pushed forwards and the tool is positively returned to its former position. Our kit includes full drawings and construction notes together with all necessary materials. A 60 degree dovetail cutter (SP 1001) will be required to machine the dovetail slides. HK1250 30.20

Gear & Retracting Top Slide Attachment Myford Super 7

Designed by G H Thomas as a modification to the Myford Super 7 Top Slide, a full kit for this prized attachment is now available! For those who haven't seen one in action, this upgrade provides truly significant advantages in both productivity and accuracy.
The small ball handle causes the complete Top Slide (with tool) to retract by around 5/32 (4mm). This greatly facilitates the cutting of both external and internal threads. It is also valuable for those final finishing cuts on both diameters and faces. A much larger micrometer (100 x 0.001 graduations) dial is used, which can be zeroed and positively locked.
! !
The dial and feed handle are connected to the feed screw by a pair of gears, which allows the feed handle to be moved upwards and outwards, thus reducing the tendency for the feed handle to foul the tailstock body or the cross slide handle.
The kit includes semi-finished blanks for the Left Hand Acme feed screw and nut (10 tpi only), the 2 necessary gears, and ALL required fasteners, springs, steel, brass, bronze and aluminium sections. Construction notes and our latest CAD drawings make this project a joy to follow; all you need to add is your time and capabilities! HK1240 109.90
HK1630
Swing & Retracting Tool Post

Engaged Designed and patented by Kenneth Hart ("Martin Cleeves") in August 1970 and described in his definitive work, "Screw Cutting in the Lathe". This simple mechanism provides retraction for both external and internal thread cutting together with a unique 'swing' feature, allowing it to be flipped clear of the job for gauging those final internal cuts on a bore or thread. The Hemingway Kits design for this item is suitable for a number of lathes up to around 5" Centre Height and importantly, it can swing clear of the fairly tall 7/16" BSF tool post of the Myford 7 range . To improve integrity, the swinging arm is milled from a steel block rather than fabricated. Extra work perhaps but the rigidity of the finished item fully justifies this approach. The kit includes all of the necessary bar materials and fasteners together with the solid model CAD drawing set and, for interest, a copy of Mr. Hart's original patent. Unfortunately construction notes are not yet available for this project but the work is quite straight forward. HK1630 31.20

MANIPULATING TOOLS
The Oxford Collet Chuck - ER20

Double-cone collets have some very important features:
HK1680
Clamping force relative to axial length is formidable! Experience lead us to state that, provided at least 1" of a tool is engaged, your tool will snap long before ER collets slip. Each ER collet holds a 1mm range of diameters. For example, a 6-7mm collet merrily holds 1/4" (6.35mm) tools or material. Uniquely, the collets are also able to hold drills and cutters by their flutes; a practice not recommended by Jacobs or Albrecht for example! ER collets are self extracting; as you loosen the closing ring, an ejector mechanism pulls the collet clear. No blood, no sweat, no tears! Finally, ER collets are quite affordable.
! ! !
The Oxford chuck has been very carefully designed for the small workshop. The ER20 format (DIN standard 6499) encompasses 0.5mm to 13mm with 13 collets. A full set allows every drill, end mill, tap, arbor or work piece from No.76 to 1/2" to be held firmly and concentrically in your spindle or tailstock. With a 2MT shank, the chuck is manufactured from high tensile steel and is tapped 3/8" BSW for a draw bar. As the Oxford chuck is hollow, drills (up to 8mm) held on their flutes can be accommodated with only a rigid stub length protruding. Where daylight is limited, the Oxford chuck can really increase the scope of your equipment. HK 1680 - The Oxford Chuck including the chuck body and closing ring QS 3000 - 12 Piece ER20 Collet Set. (1.0mm - 13.0mm) 59.50 97.50
Centre-Height Gauge
Based on G H Thomas' elegant and simple design for setting tools at centre height relative to lathe bed (upper knife) or cross slide (lower knife). The post can be revolved to the best position for setting most lathe tools including boring bars and parting blades. This gauge is suitable for lathes up to 6 centre-height. The kit includes drawings and construction notes together with the iron base casting, bar material and ground, hardenable flat stock for the knives. HK1820 18.00

Small Precision Boring Head

The Small Precision Boring Head, designed by Mr. G. H. Thomas, is a superb tool and a popular accessory. Suitable for bores up to 2, this tool can be run from either the lathe or miller. Machined entirely from steel, well balanced and suitable for high speed working. The feed screw ( x 40tpi) is fitted with a zero setting index which can be graduated in division of 0.001 of diameter. Our kit includes drawings and constructions notes, steel, fasteners, and the hardened and ground Morse Taper shank, threaded for a 3/8 BSW draw bar. You'll need a 60 dovetail cutter (SP 1001) to complete the slides.

Large Boring Head

Designed by Dr J. Beddard. A substantial boring head that is capable of boring or fly-cutting up to 6" nominal diameter. Based on a robust, well balanced phosphor bronze casting, with piston slide adjustment and positive locking, this new boring head is ideal for use on the milling machine (indeed a milling machine is required for its construction). The tool will also swing over the bed of Myford 3 centre lathes. This well presented kit includes the Bronze casting, ground Morse Taper arbor, HSS tool bit and all other materials required to complete the tool and its cutter bars.

Knurling Tools
Have mercy on your lathe! Conventional, fixed-arm tools set up almost unbearable strain on the spindle bearings of the light lathe. Moreover, the finished knurl produced in this way is seldom satisfactory. Neither of the following designs create these strains; allowing the two knurls to 'float' on the work. Each employs two sturdy cheek plates which steady the arms enormously when traversing the work. Each design accept straight (SP 1008) or diamond (SP 1007) pattern knurls which can be ordered separately and can quickly be changed from one pattern to the other.
HK1110
Basic Knurling Tool

The Basic Knurling Tool is a sound investment; from its first use you'll wonder why you put up with anything less? The tool has a capacity of 3/16 - 2" and the knurls can be traversed to within a 1/4" of the chuck. A single pass will suffice in all but the toughest steels. The kit includes all necessary material together with drawings and construction notes. HK 1110 22.90
MANIPULATING TOOLS
Sensitive Knurling Tool

This design closely follows that of the 'Marlco' device available until the late 60's. This item became a standard in the toolroom; allowing operators to feel the knurl being generated and adjust the pressure to both arms using a fine feed lever. This is a great advantage for jobs in aluminium and brass where care must be taken not to tear the material. It is also child's-play to run knurls of identical depth on a quantity of parts. The proportions of the original tool have been reduced to a size more suitable to the lighter lathe and the capacity ranges from 3/16" to 2 1/2". The kit arrives with all necessary materials, drawings and construction notes. HK1115 36.30
HK1115
Spherical Turning Tool

Makes turning ball handles a genuine pleasure. This type of accessory was favoured by both G. H. Thomas and J. A. Radford. The design is of all steel construction, with bronze bushes and thrust washers supporting a ground main shaft. This tool will cut radii, spheres and hollows from nothing to around 2". Suitable for use on lathes from 3" to 6" centre heights. Kit includes steel, bushes, fasteners, " HSS tool, drawing and instructions. A very satisfying project and tool. HK1160 51.20
HK1160
Tailstock Die Holder

An ingenious design from Mr. J. C. Payne, patent holder for the Quick-Step Mill. What is unusual here is that the Die Holder is prevented from rotating by a double-cone clutch, similar in action to a car's synchroniser. Moving the handle either side of its mid position causes the clutch to engage. Relax pressure on the handle and the Die Holder will again rotate and thus the die stops cutting. Very useful when screwing up to a shoulder. This tool will hold all common die diameters (1 5/16", 1", 13/16" and 5/8"). HK 1120 Kit with 2MT arbor HK 1121 Kit with 3MT arbor 29.90 31.10

Taper Turning Attachment Mk2

With a nominal 10" working length, the Taper Turning Attachment Mk2 is conventional in so much as the design follows accepted practice. It does, however, have some design features which we believe have not been generally available.
The attachment bolts to the rear of the lathe bed. Myford supply their 7 Series lathes with holes already drilled and tapped to accept such an accessory but adaptation of other beds may be practical. The slotted link is bolted to the rear face of the cross-slide, thus the whole of the boring table area is free for use at all times. Once the attachment has been fitted to the lathe, it is left permanently in situ, and the lathe can be made ready for taper turning in a very short space of time. All that is needed is to release the cross-slide feed screw, bring the top slide into a suitable cutting position, clamp the slotted link to the guide bar and the setting up is now complete. Accurate tapers, as required for say Morse Taper tooling, demand the exact position of the guide bar to be established. A revised precision setting micrometer, that enables quick, extremely accurate angular settings is detailed in the drawings. The kit includes LM 25 Aluminium castings for the main bracket and slotted link and a phosphor bronze casting for the slide. You will need facilities to mill the 12 long main bracket. All steel parts, including precision ground flats are provided, together with fasteners, drawings and instructions. The accessory costs well under half that of a conventional, off-the-shelf product, not having the advantages of this new design. HK 1320 160.50
HK 1100
Quick Change Tool Holder

This rigid design accepts tools up to " sq. tools which can be reground on the Worden while still in their holders. Rapid and repeatable tool height setting. Drawings show holders for plain turning, boring and parting-off tools. Suits any lathe from an ML10 upwards. Great economy, especially where many tool holders are required. Kit of steel, fasteners, spring and handles to make the tool block and 8 tool holders. HK 1100 53.40
MANIPULATING TOOLS
Keyway Slotting Attachment

Designed by Dore, this attachment is rigidly constructed yet light and quick to fit. A sturdy aluminium casting (doesn't mark your boring table) fitted with substantial bronze bushes accepts a ground steel ram carrying the cutting tool. The casting is fixed to the boring table using 2 bolts in a common tee slot. Angular setting can be made by protractor and a setting dowel quickly returns the ram to the parallel position. The main casting is suitable for lathes with a centre height of 3" to 3". The kit includes 2 aluminium castings, steel, bushes, tools, fasteners, drawings and full instructions. HK1230 83.00 HK 1232 - For larger lathes up to around 6 centre height, an aluminium raising block is offered to provide a maximum height from base to ram centre of 3 3/8.

Graduating Tool
For 'engraving' scales or indices on dials and faces held in the lathe or dividing head. The cutting tool, held at centre height in the ground steel ram, is easily stroked backwards and forwards by the handle. The length of line cut is controlled by a 3 position index drum (units, five's and tens). The ram has tool positions at its front and back allowing engraving to be completed either along the axis of the lathe, across it or indeed at any angle. The kit includes steel, precision bushes, fasteners, spring, HSS tool, drawing and instructions. HK1210 28.80

Spotting Tool
Perfect for accurately marking out work held in the lathe chuck. Fit the Spotting Tool into your tool holder and bring it up to the work. Crank the handle and the centre drill will 'spot' the work with a precise centre - ready for drilling. Index the lathe mandrel and repeat the process to accurately mark out backplates, cylinder covers etc. Suits any lathe from 3" centre height upwards.

Scribing Block & Rule Holder

Even in the age of the digital height gauge, a Scribing Block and Rule Holder are indispensable for marking-out. A new 6 (150mm) steel rule is accurate to 0.004 (0.1mm) from any graduation to its zero-end (BS 4372:1968) and typically the first 2-3 inches are graduated down to 1/64ths (0.5mm). These two items allow you to hold a rule vertically and click a scriber perfectly into a graduation. Hey presto; you've marked out 27/32nds without a second thought!
George Thomas' classic Scribing Block incorporates what must be the ultimate mechanism for this application; ensuring that the scriber arm can be smoothly set without fear of any subsequent movement. The kit arrives with our latest drawings and build notes, together with all necessary material for both items and 4 spare scriber points. You'll need a tap for 5/32x 40tpi (SP 1026) and a trusted 6 ruler. HK 1830 17.90

Improved Topslide - Myford Super 7

Finally, a kit to build J A Radfords Improved Topslide for the Myford Super 7. Radford asserted that: of all of the fixtures I have made for the Myford lathe, none has given me more satisfaction than this new topslide. The improvement in finish, accuracy and weight of cut that is possible has to be seen to be believed.
Radford's criticism of the Myford item includes its poor level of support for the tool, the rigidity of its round base, the locking bolts that distort the gib strip setting and the difficulties of getting the tool to clear the tailstock when turning between centres. The Improved Topslide will accept all of your existing toolpost fixtures including Dickson QC systems and indexing 4 tool turrets. For set-over screw cutting and taper work it is a simple matter to replace this item with the standard Myford offering. Our kit includes the 2 main iron castings and all other material, drawings and construction notes. The Improved Topslide makes use of the existing Myford feed screw, micrometer dial, handle and nut so your progress in completing the kit should be fairly quick. You'll need a 60 dovetail cutter (SP 1001). HK 1730 79.40

Grinding Spindle
This Grinding Spindle employ disc-spring loaded races to take up all bearing clearance whilst providing for thermal expansion as the spindle warms up. Maximum speed for the grinding spindle is 20,000 rpm in grease or 25,000 rpm in oil which provides for the smallest of bore grinding applications. The designer's application was for a 4" wheel running at 4,800 rpm and the pulleys and arbors are based on this. The kit includes all necessary steel for the spindle together with "magneto style" angular contact bearings, discsprings, lipped oil seals, drawings and construction notes. The pulleys are designed to accept 5mm Bond-a-Band belting which can be ordered separately (SP 1010). HK1420 74.40

Doubtless you use a draw bar already to secure tapered tooling to a machine spindle. Many of us settle for a length of threaded bar, a washer and a nut. Beyond aesthetics, there are several sources of annoyance with this approach including finding the hole in the arbor, finding the spanner for the nut and breaking all the rule of decency by striking a threaded shaft! The Fitted Draw Bar is a joy both to make and use. A pair of guide bushes allow the bar to find the threaded hole without fuss. A large diameter iron casting is provided for the knob, which can now be tightened by hand. When the job is complete you'll only need to loosen the knob a turn or two and strike it.
HK2150
Measuring from the back end of an engaged arbor to the back of your spindle, this kit will suit lengths up to 12" with guide bushes up to 1". The 1/2" bar will accommodate an arbor thread up to 1/2" BSW/M12 (including 3/8" BSW/M10). The kit includes all necessary material, drawings and construction notes. HK2150 19.40

Floating Reamer Holder

Where the exact diameter, surface finish and concentricity of a hole is important on a component, we reach for a reamer. The classic routine requires us to first centre drill then continue with larger sized drills. With say 0.050" to go, we swap to a single point boring tool to ensure the hole generated is concentric with the axis of the lathe - a job that can't be trusted to a flexible drill. With somewhere between 0.005" and 0.020" left on diameter, we swap the tailstock drill chuck for a Morse taper reamer, reduce the speed and feed in gradually. A perfect hole? ....almost certainly not!
A sharp, common-or-garden H7 class reamer will cut a 1/4" hole to a diameter of 0.02500" to 0.2506" with a near-ground finish and of near-perfect concentricity and parallelism. But here's the rub (pun intended!).... unless your lathe's tailstock is aligned to the lathe's major axis within somewhat less than 0.0002", it cannot create that elegant hole. An almost immeasurable offset and/or angular mismatch can leave the hole oversized, barrelled, oval and scarred. The answer has been known for over 100 years. Floating Reamer Holders are essential equipment on even the world's most carefully set machine tools, including CNC stations costing considerably more than the average house. For one reason or another however, they are not generally found in the small workshop? The design provided here is both elegant and sound; producing that ideal reamed hole from a tailstock barrel offset by up to 0.015" and angularly mis-aligned by up to 5. The reamer will track the bored hole, removing just those vital slivers of material. The kit includes plans and comprehensive construction notes together with all necessary material to complete holder but not the MT sleeves. The 1" MT sleeves, available separately, are traditionally used on capstan and auto lathes to hold Morse taper tooling. They are ground all over and hardened with only a thin case that can be machined away to suit our Floating Reamer Holder.

Versatile Dividing Head (VDH)

Commercial dividing heads often find disfavour among Model Engineers because they do not always fulfill the varied needs of the smaller workshops. In this design, consideration has been given not only to the wide range of possible uses of the VDH but also to the simplification of construction. In this context it may be mentioned that this dividing head generates its own division plates to a very high order of accuracy. The dimensions are such that all components can be machined on a lathe of minimum 3 centre height. In use it will be mounted principally on the cross-slide or vertical slide. Since the spindle bore for the VDH is machined in situ on the lathe cross-slide, an exact centre height match is achieved, essential for accurate cross holes, keyways and polygonal bar work. Simple Dividing is by means of a spring loaded plunger engaging any of the 24 holes in the face of the main wheel. Squares, hexagons, keyway cutting and tap fluting will probably be done by this method. Indirect Dividing is by means of the 60:1 worm/wheel and division plates. Just two division plates will allow most likely divisions and angular spacing to be obtained. Where prime numbers or indeed any division outside the range of the two plates are required, the Micro-Attachment gives capabilities down to 1/100th of a degree!

Westbury Dividing Head

Edgar Westbury was of course a true pioneer of both miniature IC engines and dedicated tooling for the small workshop. In 1963 he developed a multi-functional milling attachment similar to the popular Potts Universal Milling Attachment of the time. Whilst Hemingway have the original foundry patterns for both of these classic devices, with the advent of the Quick-Step Mill we feel there is no real market for either. One of the optional attachments for the Westbury assembly however, almost an afterthought, was a set of components called the swivelling quill holder. We saw potential for a device based on the 5 main castings here and the more we toiled at the CAD screen, the more potential we could see!
The Westbury Dividing Head (WDH) can be likened to a scale Myford Dividing Head but complete with a raising block and 360 swivelling base. Using the overarm steady, the attachment will accept jobs up to a diameter of 3. If you require more than this, you can also order the Versatile Dividing Head Milling Kit (HK 1530) to provide a separate tailstock and adaptor plates to accept jobs of up to 6 1/8. The WDH spindle arrangement is particularly well conceived. The components form a separate cartridge which can be quickly released and reversed in the main housing for axial and radial work on the lathe. Similarly, the banjo assembly supporting the direct or indirect indexing components can be re-positioned easily to suit the job in hand. Using just the direct indexing facility (HK 2130), the attachment accepts Myford 5/8 bore change wheels with 1/8 keyways. If you happen to have a standard set of these you'll be able to index a huge number of variations. If you can only rustle up a 50t and 60t gear you can still manage to index 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 10, 12, 15, 20, 25, 30, 50 and 60 divisions enough to suit virtually any application short of gear cutting. Then, by adding the indirect indexing components (HK 2135), there are no limitations to the number of divisions that can be struck. Whilst suitable for any lathe or mill we have designed in a number of features which Myford lathe owners will appreciate: The mounting holes are spaced to suit the Myford cross and vertical slides. Mounted on the cross slide, the centre heights (3) are a perfect match. The spindle is detailed the Myford 1 1/8 thread and pilot and a MT2 taper so will accept your chucks, faceplates, collets and arbors without adaptors.

Set-over Centre
The turning of tapers is one of the more important lathe processes undertaken in the workshop. For those who have much of this work to do on a repetitive basis, the expense of a taper turning attachment, such as Hemingways HK 1320, will be justified. In default, long tapers can be machined by setting over the tailstock and supporting the work on centres during the turning operation. There is an understandable reluctance to disturb the tailstock setting once it has been set to turn work perfectly parallel. However, the tailstock itself need not be set-over if this adjustable centre is employed. The kit contains material, drawings and instructions including formulae for calculating the required off-set.

Swarf Guards - Myford Super 7

This kit was developed to put an end to swarf (chip) ingress problems on the leadscrew and tailstock of Myford's Super 7 lathe. If you take the total time you've spent brushing swarf out of your leadscrew and apron; add this to the regular ritual of sliding the tailstock off the bed to remove swarf from under it and then factor in keeping the tailstock barrel clean..then you'll soon appreciate the value of these simple improvements. This kit includes a single drawing together with all of the necessary materials. You'll be glad you invested! HK 1570 17.20

Sensitive Drill Attachment For Universal Pillar Tool

This attachment is prized by the small workshop owner perhaps more that any for its sensitivity in producing smaller holes (No.80 to around 5/32). Larger pillar drills, with worm and wheel downfeed cannot begin to provide the feedback of the Sensitive Drill attachment. The 5/32" Jacobs chuck favoured by GHT is available in the standard products section (SP 1004). All drawings and instructions for construction and use of the Sensitive Drill Attachment are contained in Mr. Thomas book, Workshop Techniques. HK 1270 76.80 The full Sensitive Drill Kit arrives complete with the drill head casting and all bearings, spring, belting, steel and brass. It slips easily onto the column and can be driven by a 1,450 rpm. motor of minimum 1/12 hp (not provided). HK 1268 34.10 The Alloy Foot Kit. An aluminium casting replaces the iron base, allowing the UPT, complete with Sensitive Drilling attachment to be rigidly mounted on either the cross slide or, more usefully, the lathe bed. Mounted on the bed between the headstock and cross slide, the Sensitive Drill can be powered by the headstock at a variety of speeds. Work placed on the cross slide can then be co-ordinate drilled (or spotted) to accuracies of 1/1000. The kit includes the casting and other material to complete the foot and its anchorages.

Universal Pillar Tool

The origin of this design lay in the desire to create a versatile and useful tool, occupying little bench space and being capable of easy construction using a 3 1/2" centre lathe. When introduced some years ago as the Tapping and Staking Tool, so varied were the uses of the tool, that when the Sensitive Drill was added, a change of title to the Universal Pillar Tool became essential! Please note that all drawings and instructions for construction and use are contained in Mr. Thomas book, Workshop Techniques.
HK126X
HK 1260 The Basic UPT Kit 87.70 The basic kit consists of four iron castings, namely the Base, 2 Arms and the 6 diameter Table . The base is fixed to a base board and supports the ground steel column . This column carries the two arms, which are quite free to slide up and down or rotate about it. The table will fit either arm. When tapping a component the table is located in the lower arm and supports the item to be tapped. The upper arm then carries the tap holder. If riveting is desired, then the lower arm carries the stake, while the upper arm holds the dolly. The Kit includes the castings, ground steel column and all steel, brass and fasteners to complete the Universal Pillar Tool and most of its attachments. The 3/8" Jacobs chuck favoured by GHT for holding lager taps is available in the standard products section (SP 1005).
26.30 HK 1266 The Rotatable Staking Kit Staking can be done in a manner similar to riveting, but the Rotatable Stake will no doubt appeal to most users. 15 holes from 3/64 to 3/8 can be quickly indexed from a common PCD. This kit includes the iron casting, 2 blanks for the top plate and all other bar sections required. Ideally, the completed top plate should be hardened then ground. Great results can be obtained with only simple equipment.
HK 1275 Clock Bushing Attachment. 38.50 The lower arm of of the UPT accepts a jig to hold the clock plate. After centring the appropriate hole in the clock plate, a Bergeon type reamer, guided in the upper arm, corrects the worn hole. The reamer is then exchanged for a small press which pushes the bush accurately into position. Kit includes materials for jig, press, reamer holder together with drawings and instructions.

Saddle Clamp Handle Myford

It is of course 'good practice' on all machine tools to lock all but the slide necessary to achieve the cut. You'll be surprised to see how much more frequently you adopt 'good practice' when you haven't got to go looking for the right spanner to tighten Myford's standard saddle clamp hex bolt. Why live with this aggravation? In just 30 minutes you can replace Myford's bolt with our industry-grade ratchet handle assembly. The handle can be parked in 20 separate positions so will never get in the way of the tailstock. This kit includes the handle assembly and material to adapt it to Myford's ML10, ML7 or Super 7 saddle. A single drawing with construction notes is provided. HK1900 10.00

Leadscrew Thrust Bearings Myford Super 7

Axial slip of the leadscrew is a common cause of thread inaccuracies. A slight oscillation imparted to the screw will cause a periodic error in pitch. Georg Schlesinger adopted a pass-off criteria of half of one ten thousandth of an inch of slip for the 1920's German machine tool industry. To adjust clearance in the right hand bearing of the Myford Super 7 is a difficult balancing act, generally resulting in excessive thrust loads. This modification, carried out on the right hand bearing, provides two precision needle thrust races to accept the load when screw cutting.
No modification is required to the leadscrew and the hand wheel action becomes significantly more certain. Simple drawing, instructions plus needle races, fastener, steel and bronze to replace the existing bushes are all included. HK1470 26.60

Slow Speed Drive For Vertical Miller

Many imported vertical millers have a bottom speed of around 160 r.p.m. - too high for the model engineer's needs. By re-machining the existing pulleys and using a Poly V-belt drive, a lower speed of approximately 50 rpm can be attained without sacrificing the top speed range. The modification was designed by G. F. Deane and Partner, consultant engineers, who have a vast knowledge of this type of drive.

Trent Pinion Mill

Accurate pinion cutting has always presented a problem to clockmakers without access to sophisticated machinery. Particularly for the craftsman who requires small numbers of perhaps widely differing sizes. Designed by Elliot Isaacs and Alan Timmins, the Trent Pinion Mill includes substantial castings and dovetailed work slides. A miniature milling machine, the Trent provides maximum rigidity both in cutter support and work holding. The pinion or small wheel being cut (2" max.) is held in collets or between centres and is indexed by a notched brass plate with provision for backlash adjustment. Teeth are quickly and accurately cut in even the toughest materials, with or without coolant. The design accepts your cutters up to 35mm on a standard 7mm bore. Travel in the X, Y and Z planes are 4", 3/8" and 2" respectively. The completed mill weighs 8.5kg (19lbs) and stands 8 tall. Please note that to complete this kit you will need access to a mill with at least 8 of X travel. Trent Pinion Mill Full Kit The kit includes all necessary materials with the exception of the motor.

Screwcutting Gear Box - Myford Series 7 Lathes

Developed from the Algoa Screw Cutting Gear Box, but using castings instead of the original fabricated structure. The gearbox is suitable for the Myford 7 Series range and provides a truly enormous saving over the commercial item. Gears; make or buy? All of the 21 gears are designed as Myford standard 20DP and all except a single 18t gear, can be adapted from standard 20t 75t change wheels.
However, Machin gives elegant instruction for making the gear set from sawn blanks. The Versatile Dividing Head with Milling Kit could make light work of this task. The design retains Myfords standard change wheel quadrant, allowing metric pitches to be cut in addition to the significant range of imperial feeds. HK 1550 27.00 26 drawings and 38 instruction sheets including 52 process photos. The information provided by Machin is exhaustive, including a number of recovery steps should things go wrong. Instruction are even included for photo-etching the 2 data plates. Order the plans first and you will be reassured that this is not one of those epic projects.

Sawing and Filing Attachment

This soundly designed lathe attachment provides a true vertical cutting action, unlike the woodworker's rocking beam scroll saw. The attachment powers most 6 tension blades (tungsten carbide rod saw [Abrafile], coping saw, junior hacksaw), machine files and jig/sabre saws through almost any material: a god-send for engine, loco and clock builders. The 6 tilting table, with 4 5/8 of throat, accommodates all manner of work, including profiling, piercing, chamfering and finishing. With an adjustable stroke of up to 2 1/8 and running at up to 700 strokes/minute this attachment will save you hours! Quickly set up on the cross-slide, the attachment sits at a comfortable working height, in a very well lit area! Since the slide bar descends below the base of the main casting, you should check that there is at least 1 of free space between your cross-slide and bed or that there is a gap between the front and rear sheaves of at least 1 (as Myford 7 Series).

Potts Drill Grinding Jig

Developed by G P Potts in the 1920's, this jig is widely respected and a coveted addition to the workshop. Based on the works of Van Rouen in 1913 (details included), the cone geometry generated by the jig provides near perfect back-off, providing an easy cutting drill in the important range of 1/8" to 1/2". The geometry is adjusted according to the drill diameter by the simple use of a calliper. The jig can be mounted either to the side of the bench grinder or to the base of the Worden Mk3.
The current design has been vetted by Professor Dr.-Ing. Jrg Hugel of the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology at Zurich, who calculates that it is capable of grinding the "perfect drill". The kit includes 6 iron and 1 gunmetal casting together with all necessary bar materials and fasteners. The drawings which now accompany the kit are of a much higher standard than previously available and have taken many, many hours to prepare. Included in the design are a couple of interesting modifications proposed by Duplex in 1951 to improve repeatability. Construction notes unfortunately are not available and, owing to the complexity of the angles involved, this may not be a project for the beginner to tackle. HK1311 62.75

Multi-Position Saddle Stop Myford 7 Series

Where a run of turned components is required from the lathe, this attachment will very quickly earn its keep. In fact, the device is fitted and removed so quickly that you will even save time when producing a single part! This great new design allows for up to 6 separate axial carriage positions to be set on a rotating turret. Each stop can be adjusted with a vernier or slip gauges depending on the accuracy required. In action, the saddle can be wound along to a stop with certain and repeatable precision. The turret is then revolved to the next detent position to complete the next operation.
This attachment suits Myford's 7 Series lathes (Super 7, ML7) and fits to the right of the lathe's apron at the front of the bed. No modification to your lathe is required and the project is straight forward. The kit arrives with drawings and notes together with a single iron casting and all necessary bar materials. You will also need a 404 Woodruff Cutter (SP 1030). HK1840 41.40

Saw Table Attachment

Expertly engineered by G P Potts, this attachment simplifies slitting saw work dramatically. The table measures 7" x 4" and will fit any lathe of 3" centre height or larger. The base casting attaches to the cross slide above a saw arbor which is driven between centres. Cast fences are provided for accurate ripping and mitre work in ferrous or non ferrous metals up to around " thick. The attachment uses a standard slitting saw blade of 3" - 5", up to 1/16" thick. The table can be raised and lowered to set the standout of the blade. It is practical to hand feed sheet materials up to around 1/16" thick and, unlike shears, the blade provides a clean cut without buckling. The bridge clamp is a great addition for thicker materials. Having clamped your job to the table a good, sensitive feed is provided from your lathe's cross slide handle. If you have a powered cross feed - all the better! The kit comes complete with drawings, construction notes, 4 iron castings and all material required to produce the Saw Table together with the bridge clamp, fences and slitting saw arbor.
