Swiveling Workhead

Assembly

Driven headstock that turns the workpiece between centers or in a chuck; it swivels on its base so short steep tapers can be ground by angling the work instead of the wheel. A full specification article for this item is being written. Meanwhile its bill of materials and connections are below.
