Welcome back to the manual machine shop! Last video I walked through the process of reverse engineering a D1-5 camlock mechanism and manually drafting a rotary table chuck adapter based on that design. Now for the fun part… the machining! I’ll start with the most complicated part, the main body and walk through the process step by step. Including precision taper turning on the manual lathe, multiple milling and drilling setups with the rotary table on the vertical milling machine, and also nearly scrapping the part. But don’t worry, whenever there’s a mistake, there’s often a solution. Enjoy!
