Victor 6 Rotary Table

I’ve been looking for a rotary table to use with my mini-mill. Victor had a 6" on sale for $149 so I decided to give it a try.

It is made in India and, as expected, it is heavy (about 20 lbs) and big for the mill, but still has enough clearance to be usable.

What I did not realize until I got it was that it was horizontal only - not hor/vert which is what I had intended to buy. Also the finish looked pretty poor so I have decided to return it and try the Grizzly 6" at $199.

Here’s the rotary table sitting on the mini mill table with a 4" chuck on top. In this and the following photos I have not cleaned off the packing grease so what looks like rust is actually grease.

This gives you an idea of the size of the crank. The handle is wood.

This is one of 2 locking clamps - pretty crude but I guess they would work OK.
