Drilling / Welding the Spider - Order of Operations?
I just wanted to be sure about the order of drilling / welding the various bits on the spider (10 40 432).
- drill and tap six holes, M8 (10 40 432 D) - use temporary bolts to hold nuts (10 40 432 W) and bearing supports (M1 20 220 T) in place on the spider - weld the nuts and bearing supports - remove temporary bolts and flatten the spider as necessary. Does that all sound correct? |
Yes,
And if you really want to get the set up even closer, you can do the following: - drill slightly oversized holes and do not tap - use temporary bolts to hold the bearings, spacer and REAL z-slide in the NUETRAL eccentric position - weld nuts on back side - remove and flatten as necessary. This method will ensure any inconsistencies in the grinding of the vee profile on the z-slide are accounted for in your layout on the spider. I have had a lot of practice at this....to date, I have manufactured 7 spiders with this method. (I like the practice) :) Good luck. Sean |
