This is my second try to post this so if it already exists, sorry...
I have this Cook Multicheck and I'd like to hear from anyone who's ever used one. The second photo is of the P/N S/N plate with the vernier for measuring the angle of the azimuth rose along the bottom of the work plate. There is also a vernier for measuring the tilt underneath. It's odd to me that there is no means of bolting the device down so I suppose it was only intended to be used on a reference plate. The third and fourth photos are of a fixture I inherited from my dad. The spindle accepts the chucks and face plates from my South Bend 9" lathe and also is an MT3 taper. I stuck a couple of gears on the index side and an SB nose protector and MT3/JT33 adapter into the spindle just to show scale and function. Presumable this was produced to bolt to a milling machine bed for cutting gears. Anyone know who made it and am I guessing correctly about the use?
