After looking for a vertical mill for a while I landed a Rockwell
about the third project I tried was a gear. Here it is .

Nice mill. I certainly like mine.
Oh, yeah. Good job on the gear, too!

First time I've seen what looks like a right-hand Brown&Sharpe style head. Oh, and yes yes, nice gear.
Try a bevel. Same cutter, but the head sits on the table at 45 degrees. Some easy directions in this book. Drop down the "contents" menu and pick page 68:

Fun stuff! What is it for?
RE: 1 st Gear - carkrazd - 11-06-2015
Hi Tom
The Gear was built only to prove to myself I could do it.
It had no other purpose. It was a the first one and I was thrilled with the outcome of it.

Nice job. I think it needs a friend though.
RE: 1 st Gear - carkrazd - 11-06-2015

Moving the shop now.
