I've got a few hundred delrin parts with a 5/8" bore that need an 1/8" keyway. My new-to-me Cobra 42 doesn't seem to support spindle orientation (M19) or a spindle lock.
I assume that, without a lock, it would be a bad idea to try and broach (really, shaping) the keyways on the machine using one of those carbide insert tools which you feed in and out to shape the keyway?
I could make a rudimentary spindle lock myself, though having to place it on and off every part wouldn't be ideal.
Any suggestions?
