Home Machine Shop Tool Making – Machining A Pinion Head Depthing Tool – Part 1

In this first episode of a 3 part series I start the depthing tool project by making the bed for the tool, as well as the carrier bolts. Plenty of lathe work, milling, drilling and use of a Vertex rotary table with a shop made fixture plate (based on Frank Ford’s design) I’m following WR Smiths design for the depthing tool. You can find plans and a description for it in his book “Clockmaking and Modelmaking Tools and Techniques” (link below).
