I haven’t updated much recently because of work plus family but think things will pick up soon.. Before showing down with a new born!
A few people sent me messages wanting the plate data from the lathe and so I have added that here:




Following an endless desire to know more and go faster!
Shocking to believe that 2 years has flown by so quickly! I bought this lathe after it fell over on a fork lift while being unloaded. Needless to say it needed work.
Looking back at it now I don’t regret buying the lathe because it fell and needed some work -all of those repairs were relatively easy. What does concern me more is the footprint it occupies. This is a big boy!
There are still some handles that need to be made and the motor has been rewired for VFD. In terms of performance it is certainly a rock star!
In the near future I hope to provide some updates with where the machine is and what was needed to get there.
