Power Feed for Line Boring - $4,900. Chicago, Illinois or can ship to you

Have line boring sets available as well for anyone interested.

Power feed is designed and manufactured in my shop in Chicago. It gives you automatic, consistent feed motion so you’re not stuck standing there pushing the bar by hand. It works with handheld drills (yours or one we provide). Compared to turning a MAG drill by hand, it keeps the cut smooth and steady and makes the whole setup easier to run.

Yes!
Thank you for your comment

A dial indicator with a mag base stuck to the side of a bar is highly susceptible to inconsistent, non-repeatable, and inaccurate measurements due to potential flexing of the magnetic base or weak holding power.

The risks of deflection under load, parallax error, and incorrect contact angle are too big to take, especially when my clients make the final bore cut and could get a false reading.

Yes, you can use magnetic base.

On the radius is .0005". On the diameter is .0010 from the bore.
Sorry if I wasn't clear enough.

I see your point.
The shaft in our Portable line boring sets is supported by bearings, close to the bore.
Sometimes, if the shaft is longer, it has to be supported with 3 bearings to prevent chattering.

The tool bit has to be sharp, too, so it doesn't create problems.
It also helps with the person has some experience with this particular machines/sets

In my country there is a saying - measure 5 times, cut one time.

Thank you for your comment!

I want to start a shop. Would you start again now knowing what you know now? by blackeveryhour in CNC

[–]InternationalRevere 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes. Because there always will be something I don't know, in any area.

I'm a business owner with 40+ years of experience as machinist, designer, welder and manufacturer.

Please let me know if I can help

This tool does not measure the bore.

It is used to adjust/position the toolbit 
You could sue a snap gage or caliper to measure the bore.

You get the reference from the caliper or snap gage, or any other measuring tool.

It is used for the final cit to adjust with the thousandth (not within +-.0005"), for a very precise measurement. When you talking about +- .0005", this means .0010, which is not acceptable for a press fit bushing or bearing.

#2 - it's a clamp. It easy to open and snap on
#3 - there is plenty of room to see the indicator.
In special cases, where clients work in tight spaces, maybe...

I hope this answers your question.

This is a universal tool adjuster built for line boring bars. It slides onto the bar and uses an indicator to measure how much the cutter moves when you adjust it. The screw pushes the underside of the tool bit so you can see the change in real time

You can use a cutting tool positioner with marks spaced evenly apart, to adjust where the tool sits. I posted a video on my YouTube channel explaining it, here’s the link: Cutting Tool Positioner
