Im sure that if I am able to adjust the right...
Thanks for getting back to me.
You're right I meant that it was a herringbone gear shaper.
Im using it to cut helical gears but this taper/step is starting to annoy me lol
Hello,
Im currently trying to get a W.E. Sykes gear Hobber back in action and can get it to cut the required gears but it is cutting at a .005" taper/step.
