For the template go to incompetech.com... and put as many divisions as you want, depending on what you want to make.
In one of my next projects, I need to drill out equally spaced holes on a small brass ring. Since I don't have a mill with an indexing head, I thought of using my lathe and a very simple angular syystem to make these holes. As you can see from the video, it consists of a few, easily accesible parts and can be built pretty fast. The accuracy of the holes on this particular part that is on the video was at 0.05mm, which for now it's ok, but if I was more careful it would have been even lower than that.

Thanks for the great educational video, and a huge thanks for not ruining it with crappy background music. I don't know why some people are compelled to add annoying background music throughout the video.
Hi Johnny,
I had been put off indexing because of the expensive and complicated gadgets required.
Looking at your idea, it's so simple. Fantastic effort in making a simple but efective indexing wheel.
I will make one along these lines, thanks for sharing your idea on utube..
I own a smaller optimum lathe and with some fiddling I managed to adapt your system to it, making it even more compact.
It's a really good idea and fairly easy to install and remove.
I've seen far more complicated (and not to mention expensive) methods of doing what you're doing, it's beautifully simple.
Nothing speaks of precision like gluestick and printer paper components uwu
I don't know how 83 people could give this a thumbs down. A great solution to your indexing problem. Keep machining my friend.
In theory, you don't even really need the pointer arrangement. You could just score a line on the spindle clamp. It would also be reasonably easy to modify this idea to use something like the quick release lever of a bicycle seat post to make locking/unlocking the spindle clamp a much quicker process, and removing the need for the screwdriver. That said, you've come up with quite an ingeniously budget friendly solution there. I'm impressed.
Nice one.... Your Idea has helped out a lot of people and saved them some money.....
Thanks for sharing

That was pretty cool, Liked it. For the pointer I would use the one of the two screws on that bar to the top right of the dial ring you made, at time index 6:47. You could use a bolt with a threaded post on top and then use a turn nut to be able to remove the pointer any time it's not used or if you want to remove it to change the dial ring. Very nice video, I've been thinking on doing something similar for awhile now. Just need to get off my butt and do it.
Thanks for sharing. Best Wishes n Blessings. Keith
I would make sure of accuracy by gluing the pointer into the dowel. Didn't see you do thi. Knowing my luck it would move half way through!
the best channel in the world, Congratulations, keep it up
Very simple and effective, thanks for sharing.
Love the simplicity of this, great idea :-D
youre a clever dude. ill be using a few of your set up ideas from these videos...
Suggestion. Instead of using a paper and arrow system, grab a bit of Plexiglas and using a print, drill holes using your drill press.
Then, that disc, put it where the paper is, and instead of the arrow, grab a piece of metal that is flexible, like a piece of measuring tape or a metal ruler. Drill a hole, add a screw, round said screw's end in to a ball (and make sure the screw fits in the holes of the disc), then using either a pre-existent hole in the lathe or a new hole affix the flexible indicator to the lathe.
When you want to advance to the next position, lift the metal tab, move the chuck and drop the nubbin in the next hole. For safety and for peace of mind, you can keep the locking mechanism you've made, maybe add a small knob so you can ditch the screw driver.
Doing this, or similar, will greatly improve your precision as it will not rely on the eye coordination or on the screw being tightened to keep the position.
Cheers.
A very nice way to do some dividing in the small shop!
Iv watch a few of your videos now and i suspect im going to make lots of things i dont really need out of it but some very usefull things such as the one shown in this video! :)
Συγχαρητήρια και Χρόνια πολλά.
Ευφυέστατη κατασκευή και πολύ χρήσιμη .Να ΄σαι καλά που τη μοιράστηκες .
Έχω ,ενα τορνάκι κινέζικο από τη UNIMAC στον οποίο έχω τοποθετήσει και ένα δεύτερο μοτέρ DC με μειωτήρα για να μπορεί να κόβει πάσα και τώρα θα προσπαθήσω να κάνω τον διαιρέτη .
Χίλια ευχαριστώ και πάλι.
+Johny Smithy Εγώ ευχαριστώ για το ωραίο σχόλιό σου! Καλή χρονιά!
+JohnnyQ90 Ευτυχισμένο το νέο έτος σε εσάς. 2018 ελπίδα σας φέρνει την υγεία, πλούτο και την ευημερία. Μπορεί ο ΘΕΌΣ να σας ευλογεί όλο το χρόνο.
+Χρήστος Καγούδης Συμφωνώ, είναι πολύ χρήσιμο, σκοπεύω να upscale αυτό για μου 1340 τόρνο.
very good design... and by good i mean simple, effective and almost free
Thank you i like this video, and I feel comfortable when I watch mechanic work
Looks pretty handy and simple, thanks for uploading!
The Fishing Hobbyq
Very good method I like it
I've seen a similar item a wile back. its a great idea. I like it! I've got a few sherlines I can use this on.
you kinda should look into drills with negative rake angle, makes them squeal way less when drilling brass etc
please make a step by step fly tying vise video! there aren't any (good) videos on that on youtube. thanks in advance. your work is much appreciated. kind regards from argentina.
Congratulations friend, very interesting.
When I have more time again, I want to make these adjustments because it facilitates our work.

K.I.S.S
this is great, i will make a template for the wheel i want to scribe! lines into and i don't have an indexing head so this solves it nicely
This is fuckin ingenious! I was looking for a easy and cheap way for parting, since it is very impractical going from a turning machine to a mill with heavy ass parting tool and back just for drilling holes!
nicely done!
Cool ring bro
Good idea going to have to try this out.
excellent job, a good idea my friend
Excellent method!
would like to know more or see more of the drill setup on the cross slide, could you show how you made that drill?
+mcdangdang ruclips.net/video/i2cgoPpCmPc/видео.html
Excellent idea.
Simple and sweet!
Steve
go go, go Johnny go go Johnny be good!!!!!!
Brilliant
Great idea. Why use an external pointer? Couldn't you just extend the first piece of strap to include a pointer with a few more twists?
Hi can i see the adapter for attaching the dremmel to the lathe.......
Nice, Thanks
I like it.
Unfortunately there is no room on my lathe to set this up :(
Very smart! Props to you!
great idea! Thanks
Well this is just lovely. I'd have overengineered this idea to death.
pretty sweet! keep up the good work
You could make a air raid siren from machined rotor and stator. :P
Not related to this video but when your making those steam powered turbines. Have you thought about using electricity to heat the coils instead of flame?
GOOD STUFF BUD!!
Very ingenious !
+Robert Matter Thank you sir!
nice, why do not 3d print a gear with the division and use a locking ping to had more precision?
It appears this method is only as accurate as aligning the pointer by eye on the index template, or am I missing something? Thanks.
Probably accurate enough for home shop use. He's not building nuclear weapons initiators. The human eye (young ones anyway) can achieve .001"-.003" accuracy on aligning a pointer to a line.
Clever thinking- you not only save a lot of money over buying a rotary table, plus you are now eligible for citizenship in the Philippines.
where did you buy that dremel
Nice good job
could you make a video on how to make a jet engine like the one you made along time ago???
What kind of drill is that you have setup on your cross slide? I have been trying to figure something out to do side drilling. . . Please let me know, I'd really appreciate it. I wanted to put around a 6mm end mill in a chuck to mill fins on a turbine diffuser. Looking further, I see it is a dremel attachment, you just put it in the tool holder just like a tool?
Thanks
Hey, I was looking into duplicating his setup myself, so I did some checking. If you search "Dremel Lathe" on ebay, you should find a few different versions of the attachment Johnny is using. He also has a video posted of him modifying that tool, so you can get a good look at it.
beyond that, I'm pretty sure he's just using a regular Dremel flex shaft with 3-jaw chuck and rotary tool, easy to find on amazon or your local home improvement store.
Of course, I'm surmising all of that, so I may not be completely correct.
Thank you for responding. I kinda figured that's what it was, you just gotta think outside the box with this stuff and anything is possible
Pretty sure he said a Dremel.
nice
use a digital level , it is much simpler and accurate. Today you can find for less than 20$
The best way is to stick it oa one of the chuck jaw, set your first hole to "0" and rotate manually the chuck to 72 deg, 144 deg... etc...
Πολύ καλή ιδέα!
I'm sure they have already asked you, but I cant't find it: Which lathe model is that?
+kioan Ο τορνος ειναι ο optimum tu 2004v.
A great idea but not to dividing head accuracy was never intended to be but didnt cost 4 or 5 hundred euros
why you did not make it at milling machine?
+sieeersciuch I don't have a mlling machine, that's why I did it on the lathe...
What lathe do you use?
+Hak Kar It's the Optimum tu2004v
excellent idea, thanks to share
you're awesome
Πω πω! Μπορείς να φτιάξεις και (καζανάκι) για τζετ κινητήρα με τον ίδιο τρόπο.
+Fotai19 Το σκεφτηκα αυτο, γιατι στο παρελθον επιχειρησα να κανω κατι τετοιο, το θεμα ειναι πως φτιαχνεις τα υπολοιπα κομματια...
Αμ δεν είναι μόνο το φτιάξιμο. Γιατί ας πούμε η διαδικασία κατασκευής της φτερωτής εισαγωγής μοιάζει με γρανάζι. Μπορώ να σκεφτώ κάποια jigs γ αυτό. Είναι και πως τα ζυγοσταθμίζεις δυναμικά τα κινούμενα κομμάτια. Κ εκεί κρίνονται πολλά. Μα πάνω από όλα η ασφάλεια !
+Fotai19 Ακριβως. Και η ζυγοσταθμιση ειναι ενα απο τα πολλα περα απο τα κατασκευαστικα που θα πρεπει να αντιμετωπισει κανεις οπως ειπες και εσυ. Μπορει στο μελλον να προσπαθησω να κανω κατι αφου πρωτα θα εχω εξοπλιστει με τα καταλληλα εφοδια. Εννοω κυριως την γνωση.
Where are you from? What country?
+laurens scheerstra I'm from Greece...
+johnnyq90 Thats why you got so much spare time lol
+johnnyq90 Thats why you got so much spare time lol
+Yop Brookhuis what do you mean? Do days in Greece have more than 24 hours?
kioan Because you are bankrupt and no work?:p
second measurement went off as you tightened the clamps..
may I have your email I have a great idea of a unlimited generator.
come on Johnny, I was about to drop some science! please re-enable comments on the other video
Thank you!
Add music
Does this guy literally use an ellipsis at the end of every single thing he says in the comments or is that just me?
first coment
+Olivier Beaulieu I assume you're a 10 y.o. having a bad day or failed school miserably because you can't even spell the word "comment" correctly xD
+Anton Babiy no i dont have school its satuday, and i cant type well because my screen is all cracked and messed up
+Olivier Beaulieu that isn't an excuse to swear at others who are typing more intelligent stuff than you do. You can go comment "first" on some celebrity page.... this is a technical channel and such comments are useless spam.

I'm doing this because it's entertaining ;P
Btw, well said!

Excellent idea.
Smart idea!
