Hafco HM-52 Converted to CNC Lathe making Chuck Adaptor

Description:
This is a Hafco HM-52 manual metal knee mill converted to CNC (Computer Numericaly Controlled) In this Video I start off with a piece of high tensile flat bar 150mm X 150mm x 32mm (6" X 6" X 1 1/4") and mill it into a round circle. The circle then goes into my lathe and I manually machine one face to fit onto the horizontal spindle of my HM-52 CNC mill. I then use the mill and CNC controll to machine the other side of the plate so that I can attach a 3 Jaw chuck. In this configuration I run Mach3 Turn as my controll software. The 125mm chuck has bore size of 30mm and the spindle has a through hole of 17.5mm. Full conversion of the machine can be viewed at cnczone.com and search for threads by chich2.
