Head Bolt Caps

I made some head bolt caps for my Speed Twin 1200 today... looks more rounded off...



Some more photos of the process:

 

Is that an Emco lathe?

Here's mine, a Boxford 250.

 

You have a proper lathe! I bought my Emco 49 years ago with my first pay cheque... and never regretted it!!

 

Mine cost around £2500 new back in 1985, I have the receipt somewhere.
I purchased it some years later and added the dro.
Its funny how it goes but don't you find you get a lot of jobs for it over a few weeks then it sits dormant for a while?

I've made all sorts on it and the most bizarre was a 46mm nut x 1.0 mm pitch, but left hand, for a machine at work. They said we can't get spares for this Hungarian machine as we've tried in the past and we never had a nut to go with this attachment, you any ideas?
Yep, pay me normal hours and I'll bring you one from home?

 

100% agree! It's like a spare wheel - not always in use but always there!

 

@Old Biker: Those caps are looking great!

 

Fantastic job, looks great.
