    Ebony

    Although I joined a few years back, I don't peek on this side of the pond often - my neglect. However, I have been conversing with Alan Morrison and thought I'd share a pen that he mentioned. And as is typical for me, share the process so that others can have a head start. Since this is my...

    Dividing Head or Rotary table?

    I am looking at Dividing Heads and Rotary tables, I was told by a friend to get a dividing head, but I remember Skiprat uses a Rotary table pretty much the same way as you would use a Dividing head so does anyone have one or the other or maybe both and can give me a heads up what to consider.
