Making an Adapter Flange for the Tallyho Cap Standand Project

💡The Tallyho Cap Standand Project involves creating an adapter flange out of cast iron.

🔧The process includes turning the metal, drilling holes, and milling slots.

📐Keith uses accurate measurements to ensure the part is made to the required specifications.

🔩After the adapter flange is made, it will be used to mount a motor for the winch on the Tallyho cap standand.

🔨Keith collaborates with Dave Webster from Deep Blue Engineering for the engineering work and is expecting some parts from them as well.

What is the purpose of the adapter flange?

00:07Keith introduces the Tallyho Cap Standand Project and the task of making an adapter flange.

01:01Keith shows the drawing of the part to be made and explains the specifications.

01:16Keith starts the process by turning the cast iron piece on a lathe to the required diameter.

07:01Keith uses a milling machine to create the necessary slots and holes in the adapter flange.

09:58Keith measures the thickness of the adapter flange and continues to fine-tune it to the required measurements.

12:36After achieving the desired thickness, Keith moves on to drilling a hole in the adapter flange.
