Anyone Know Where to Get a Drive Dog?

11/11/2010 1:07 PM

And I don't mean a lathe drive dog with the bent hook, I mean a straight drive dog I can use on my studer grinder.

I tried Google and I got a lot of bent tail drivers, and I can't use them. I would like one like what I have in this picture.

Thanks anyone..

Laby

Probably not a lot are sold ,they do not wear out. So the market is limited.

Best approach is to make one your self it is not a very complex construction, the two V section parts can be brazed or welded in place, takes a bit more effort but give great satisfaction.
