Need to Acquire the capability to cut internal keyways:
Also would appreciate suggestions on pros & cons of options:
-Arbor Press and Broaches
-Vertical Slotter e.g. Pratt Whitney 6” Model B
-Shaper
-Keyway Slotter (Davis, etc)
-K & T Horizontal mill Slotter attachment
-Home made Vertical Slotter for Horizontal mill.
-I’m not interested in EDM at this time.
I have a home machine shop and currently do not have internal Key Way capability. I would like a solution that won’t break the bank, as I see this as a capability I will use infrequently, primarily for cutting Keyways in some gears.
What machines I have:
K & T 307 S12 horizontal universal
K & T 205 S12 vertical
Cleerman Layout Drill
Hendey-Barber Coleman 20-113 Lathe
Monarch 10EE 1969 model lathe
Thanks for any affordable purchase options or equipment/tooling leads.
I am located in the southern most and central KY near Dale Hollow Lake/Byrdstown area.
Kind Regards, Ken
