Rotary Table Rehab

Описание: Follow along while I disassemble a Palmgren 8" X-Y rotary table and make it work a little better. This is something I've wanted to do for a long time and since making my video I have used the rotary table a lot and its working MUCH better than it did before. I got this rotary table from an old school machinist/maker and I plan to keep it working for another 50 years!

Loosening the worm drive that turns the table did create a little more backlash and slop in the table top but nothing substantial enough to effect the performance.


The table I have is old, but palmgren still makes these if your interested in getting one (they aren't cheap though... ) http://www.palmgren.com/product/420/140
