Hi, This is not C D or C N C stuff, I just made some add on bits to my lathe, pic816, so I could drill and rifle a " Black powder barrel "only.
Here`s how I did it. My lathe is belt driven and cuts metric and inch threads, the head stock bore is 38mm and at the back it has two bearing lock nuts screwed on, a bit of the thread for these was used to screw on my back barrel stock holder, pic817, with fore grub screws to centre the stock .
A flange was welded on with six even spaced holes for rifling register, pic818 . The fore jaw chuck centred the front end and this was how I held the barrel stock in the lathe. Homebrew.357.
