HANDY LITTLE LATHE CHART
UNIVERSAL EDITION

LITTLELOCOS MODEL ENGINEERING
is proud to present our HANDY LITTLE LATHE CHART, an outstanding timesaver for your shop.  Using one chart, you can easily find the correct tool cutting angles and the proper cutting speeds for any of 22 different materials.  Cutting speeds for the "Slow-Speed Universal" edition provides 16 rounded spindle speeds, matching most older and/or larger metal lathes.  This is the chart we recommend for all South Bend Metal Lathes other than the SB-9A, B, or C, or the 10K.  See our other listings as we have specific charts for those.  All cutting speeds are
C

for ease of use.
To use the HANDY LITTLE LATHE CHART:
1.
Choose a metal and grind your High Speed Steel (HSS) tool blank to the
geometry listed on the “RECOMMENDED TOOL GEOMETRIES” table.
Note the color-keyed, recommended cutting speed.
2.
Find the diameter of the piece in the left column of the “SURFACE FEET PER MINUTE CUTTING SPEEDS” chart.
Follow across and match the color of the recommended speed in that row to the lathe speed in the top row.
Set your belts and go!!

SPECIFICATIONS and USES
Each chart is a
FULL-COLOR DIGITAL PRINT on
11”x17”
bright white paper.
Each is
FULL-SEAL
HOT
LAMINATED
with heavy duty (5-mil) FILM. The chart is totally sealed for years of use and wipes clean with a soft cloth. We use only GBC Ultra-Clear Laminates and a commercial-quality laminator for highest quality.
The Recommended Tool Geometries table gives all the angles needed to correctly grind your high-speed-steel cutter blanks to the correct cutting angles for
22 DIFFERENT MATERIALS.
The Surface Feet Per Minute Cutting Speed table calculates the speed that the metal stock passes by the tool tip.
THIS IS THE CRITICAL SPEED IN WORKING WITH METAL
as each different material likes to be cut at different speeds.
GRAPHICAL INSTRUCTIONS, PLUS TWO PAGES OF DETAILED INSTRUCTIONS
are included with each chart, showing the definitions for each of the grinding angles and walking through a typical use for the chart.
USE IT BACKWARD
for your MILLING AND DRILLING OPERATIONS
as the cutting speeds apply to all HSS cutters. Just take the rotating cutter diameter as the stock diameter and read the recommended RFM from the top of the chart.
