Our new holder....this comes as a 4 piece set to start ,and you can buy extra pieces.
What this does is allow you to remove the forearm and replace as many times as you need, you can even switch between different fore arms
as long as each one has a coupler attached, you can order extra couplers .
in and out with pin point accuracy every time. You can do recuts...6 or 8 point cues.over over cut pockets for touching points at the A joint.

pins or spurs in wood are useless and the accuracy sucks...............!

We tested this and acuacry for flawless

heres what you get in the 4 piece kit for $60.00 shipped to you

part 1 the driver stays in your mill (one of these)
part 2 attach?s to your fro-arm (you 3 of these)
when the 2 are joined theres no movement
we use a technology from the screw machine field . We actually make a similar part to use on gears in a screw machine ...very accurate... very simple.

You say all this about the device ... then go on to say you are testing it tonight? ... :confused:

whats your point i know it will work

I think his point was, IMO, your saying it's 100% dead nuts basically, and sounds like it's ready to ship, but you still testing it. Usually "still testing" means that things may not be right, and further development has been needed, and usually one doesn't announce it until it's fully ready and already tested, and passed.
I am only explaining what I perceive Willie's post to be. no offense to anyone:smile:

they are for doing recuts or pointed cues .... you will never maintain the acuracy with them as in this we did run a test and the acuracy was perfect

Anything that isnt used right can suck.

I give you credit for the brainstorming on your device.
First thought that comes to mind though is how close are the parts 1 & 2 machined. If there is any movement or space at all between part 1 & 2 isnt that going to throw your center off even if just a little?

Same with part 2 fitting on the end of the forearm. Doesnt appear to be mechanical fasteners or threaded. Is that just a press fit and what would keep the forearm from rotating in it?

Looks like the hole in the end of part 2 would be the turning center?
Always interested in trying something new that works.
 
there zero slopp as i explained we use this same method on gears we make for screw machines . these will be produced on large cnc center the accuracy will be Less then two tenths . We did some testing yesterday and everything went prefect .I try to make everything we make easy to use and fool proof the spur method or pin method has one draw back as you put pressure on the part wood will give and make a sloppy connection what I'm saying is with ours you can take in and out as many times as you want with exact positioning the delrin part is not a press fit before you install the delrin you turn down tenon to .625 then drill and tap the delrin has a pin inside when you tighten all the way to the shoulder believe me it will not come off easy .now the delrin fits in the steel the specially machined screw and pocket are a exact match giving you a perfect fit every time .
now you do 3 point and take out turn down then do 3 more providing your indexer is accurate you ready go
 
Okay:
Steel arbor goes into indexer not to be removed- got it!

Delrin holder fits into arbor and precisely aligns via a shoulder? on the screw and a thread to tighten-got it!

What I don't get is how the delrin stays onto the forearm without slipping?

Thanks in advance (appears to be a great jig by the way!) :)

I believe that this is Lee's intended meaning.

You turn down tenon to .625 then drill and tap.
The delrin has a (threaded) pin inside.
You tighten all the way to the shoulder.
Believe me it will not come off easy
 
I spoke with Lee on the phone about this before he had a chance to go look at the finished product. I will definatly be getting one. I've tried several ways. Some have worked well and some have not, but this will certainly be an improvement.
 
Lee, any ballpark on price yet? Thanks,
Also, I want to convert the the concave center that I got from you awhile back, to a 60 degree, can this be done with out losing accuracy? Or do I need to order a whole center?
Dave
 
Looking Good Lee.

I do believe Lee was referring to two ten thousands (.0002") of an inch which is pretty damn accurate. I made a a little fixture based on the same idea a few months ago that keys forearms and buttsleeves to my own indexing fixture. I started a new thread and posted some pictures of it. If it sparks some ideas for future Brianna products great. One comment, you might consider making the delrin piece out of aluminum or brass.

the idea of the delrin is to make them inexpensive so a cue maker can buy many extras if he wants he can 20 fore arms going at one time and take them in and out at he leisure we will start production later next week
 
joey
we have found grabbing the cue at the thick end and also start cutting there and working to the joint end has produced the best results you can do either end with this ......lee
first cnc machine done today at 5:00 pm
look for pictures and videos
