5C to 1 1/2" x 8 tpi adapter?????????

Test photo:

[/QUOTE]

That's a darn good idea. I was thinking about making a bolt on adapter, but instead I could just go from MT4 to South Bend and it would be so much easier to use than having to unbolt and bolt and then dial indicate an adapter.

I have only been using a South Bend threaded spindle for a few years and LOVE it. I don't even bother to change jaws any more just spin on a three jaw inside grip chuck for an outside grip chuck, take about as long to complete as it does to go get a wrench for a bolt on chuck.

This thread was recently linked to a thread in the Antique part of the forum.

You will be pleased to know there is a much more simple way of making clickable thumbnails than the method proposed back in post #1. You do not need to download two images, just simply download your normal full-size image and do the following:

The following is written by Asquith , I have taken the liberty of adding a few words:


How to post clickable thumbnails using Photobucket:

Preparation:

In your Photobucket album, when cursor hovers over a photo, various icons and text appear below.

At the bottom of the text, select LINK OPTIONS.

This brings up a selection of tick boxes.

Under IMG for Bulletin Boards & Forums, tick Full Size and Clickable Thumbnails.

These two boxes subsequently appear under all photos.

(hint: you can untick all the other boxes if you don't require them)

---------------------------------------------

Now, let's say you want a clickable thumbnail. Go to your image in Photobucket, hover cursor over the image, and when IMG Thumb appears, left click on the code to the right, and copy (ie right-click and select 'copy') the highlighted code.

Paste this into the text you are writing for your PM post.

If you post this it will bring up unwanted Photobucket gubbins (adverts etc). I had to find the way round this, as follows. Say the file code is:-

[U R L=http://s3.photobucket.com/albums/y54/Asquith1/Winter%202009/?action=view&current=GR01.jpg][IMG]http://i3.photobucket.com/albums/y54/Asquith1/Winter%202009/th_GR01.jpg[/I M G][/U R L]

Remove the stuff I've highlighted in bold, i.e. ?action=view&current=


nb. a few spaces have been added to the code above to stop it becoming a thumbnail.

Default Grandfather. Paula

Paula, what is your Grandfather's name and what year do you think that was taken, those people built this country to be great through hard work, they were the real craftsman, thanks for the photo, I would like to put his name and date on the photo and put it in my shop with my SB soon as I get it restored, thanks, Joe G.

Hi Joe,

The man in the picture is not my grandfather. You must have skipped over the 2nd post following that one:

http://www.practicalmachinist.com/vb...42&postcount=7

My grandfather was a coal miner -- a hard worker and a good man, though I like to think that he could have operated that lathe as well as anyone, had he put his mind to the task. I'm in full agreement with the sentiments you expressed, however.

Paula

Default Testing of thumbnail

How to post clickable thumbnails using Photobucket:

Preparation:

In your Photobucket album, when cursor hovers over a photo, various icons and text appear below.

At the bottom of the text, select LINK OPTIONS.

Here you can see the LINK OPTIONS at the bottom of the mouse over dialog box.



This brings up a selection of tick boxes.

Here is the LINK OPTIONS dialog box.


Under IMG for Bulletin Boards & Forums, tick Full Size and Clickable Thumbnails.

These two boxes subsequently appear under all photos.

(hint: you can untick all the other boxes if you don't require them)
(hint: you can also force the selections to show without a mouseover (show always)
(hint: select SAVE once all selections have been made)



With SHOW ALWAYS selected on the LINK OPTIONS dialog. Notice the diffrence from the upper picture utilizing the mouse over vs this one


---------------------------------------------

Now, let's say you want a clickable thumbnail. Go to your image in Photobucket, hover cursor over the image, and when IMG Thumb appears, left click on the code to the right, and copy (ie right-click and select 'copy') the highlighted code.

Paste this into the text you are writing for your PM post.

If you post this it will bring up unwanted Photobucket gubbins (adverts etc). I had to find the way round this, as follows. Say the file code is:-

[U R L=http://s3.photobucket.com/albums/y54/Asquith1/Winter%202009/?action=view&current=GR01.jpg][IMG]http://i3.photobucket.com/albums/y54/Asquith1/Winter%202009/th_GR01.jpg[/I M G][/U R L]

Remove the stuff I've highlighted in bold, i.e. ?action=view&current=





If you remove the " ?action=view&current= " and use IMG thumb you get the above


If you do not remove the " ?action=view&current= " and use IMG thumb you get the above.
You have to click the thumbnail to see the difference. This could be a benifit if you wanted to place someone in your PhotoBucket album with a thumbnail link to get them there.


NOTE: If you get crazy with the tags you will get an Vbulletin error from PM. See Below

"You have included 11 images in your message. You are limited to using 10 images so please go back and correct the problem and then continue again.
Images include use of smilies, the BB code [img] tag and HTML <img> tags. The use of these is all subject to them being enabled by the administrator"


All credit for the black text goes to the guys a few posts back.

Hi Jimmy,

You've got it right. Thumbnails will not be captioned unless you use the method of uploading your photo to the forum server (see addendum to first post in this thread).

There is no size limit on an image merely linked from your post (whether with a URL or with a thumbnail), since it opens in a new window/tab. The size limit only applies to images which open directly within your post (640 pixel-width recommended, 800 if needed).

Looks good!

Paula
