Battery Pods

08/04/09

In order to machine the rings that will be attached to these endcaps, I have to have some method of holding them in the lathe.  I can hold the caps the wrong way around, so I first chucked it up and marked the centre.  Next I took It off and welded on a piece of the sch80 pipe that I have left over from the pod vents.  Its nice and thick for machining, but not solid so it will be easier to cut off later.
