Sector Shaft Seal Machining
After many delays at the local machine shop getting a sector shaft reccessed I am looking at home ideas for maching them. Has anyone tried doing them in their drill press or using a B&D valve grinder or other ideas? I know they are not square with the flanged surfaces, which makes a mill for the 7 tooth and a lathe for the 2 tooth ideal, but not having those things yet, I need to try to utalize what I have. I do have a sealed bid in on a smaller logan lathe, that will need some work. Likely it will be several months before a decesion is made on it. Need to get these going before then without more unneccessary delays at the machine shop. It took him nealy 1 1/2 years to get to mine along with the brake drums, which I picked up Thursday. Thanks Rod
