Is there a way to have an indexing head on the buddy?
I use to have a legacy ornamental mill and made some pretty cool barley twist and fluted columns.
Any suggestions.
Thanks

Go for the extended Z option. It will give you a lot of room.

I have an indexor on my bt-32. I keep it on the 4' powerstick most of the time. Occasionally I move it to the spoilboard, or use it externally for things like tapping threads, or re-threading.
See my youtube video on the subject-

Nice video.....if a picture is worth a thousand words a video is worth a million!
Do you have other buddy vids?
I wish Shopbot had produced more tutorial type videos!
Cheers

go back to the starting pages of the "Indexer" section and you should see several indexers guys have made for various models of shopbots. I think they range from $200 and up. Several different configurations and one might work for you.
