things i want to do around ps1
projects
large-scale things that involve protracted work, coordination with other people, the establishment of policies, &c
outdated
archived project pages that are no longer relevant to the current state of the shop
- surface grinder setup (surface grinder is up & running)
things
objects i want to make for the shop
- 7/16" square drive handle for clausing saddle lock
- get an appropriate socket, make a handle, and attach the two
- saddle lock square bolt head fits a 7/16" open wrench, but not the closed end, or a 7/16" 'universal' socket
- a 1/2" 'universal' socket (or closed-end wrench) fits fine, if a little loosely
- magnetic whiteboard 'last organized' charts
- can be affixed to cabinets / tool carts / shelves to show little charts of when they were last thoroughly organized
- idea is to provide a decentralized, low-overhead means of coordinating contents organization / cleanup
- modular table covers for the bridgeport
- modules
- idea is to have them be in sections of 4-10" so they can accommodate the vice moving, &c
- make multiple sizes, so they can be rearranged?
- will need at least two special ones to fit snugly against vice sides, which aren't square
- should have magnets in, so they stick to the table
- blocks that fit (loosely?) into the t-slots, so they register easily
- idea is to have them be in sections of 4-10" so they can accommodate the vice moving, &c
- manufacture
- will have to laser-cut, to get the contours for the vice-hugging sections right
- engrave holes for magnets & mark out t-slot block positions
- screw / glue / staple t-slot blocks down?
- top surface should be flat, so would need to countersink screws carefully
- material
- maso or mdf would be easiest
- plastic (hdpe?) for wear / oil resistence?
- modules
- convert one of the two spindexers into a powered cylindrical grinding fixture for the surface grinder
- mount motor, add round belt pulley to spindle
- add thrust bearing to preload spindle
- big thick base so the spindexer doesn't need to sit in the middle of the mag chuck
- will probably need to make a pin spanner to tighten the front screw on
- tool height gauge for the clausing
- mag base to make it easy to mount solidly on the ways?
- use dowel pin for reference surface
- grind to proper dimension
- need good way to experimentally determine proper tool height
