Artisan Makes | $200 Dividing Head - Almost Scammed Buying It @artisanmakes | Uploaded 2 years ago | Updated 2 hours ago
G'day everyone,
I recently made a video where I cut a set of spur gears for my mini lathe, and a topic that a lot of people were interested in was the dividing head that I used in that video. Typically a brand name dividing head will run you $600 for the dividing head, plus extra for a chuck and backplate, however I was able to snag one for just over $200 USD. I will admit I almost got scammed buying it, but I eventually got my hands on one. I bought this one from a vendor named Vevor.
Today I would like to run you through the process of how I bought it. I will then tear it down, go through its features and give it a review. This model is a BS-0 semi universal dividing head. I can cut spur and bevel gears with it, however I can not make helical hears.
I hope you enjoy the video, cheers.
