Not much room at all!! .... When do I come over and move in?  ;D

If you have one try a collet chuck... Much safer!  I was thinking about making a morse 3 extended arbour to fit the 'pig tail' into my spindle without the need for the chuck.... A little safer.



As I state in the video... this is just my way (sing along if you have to!!  ;D )


Have fun and stay safe,

As soon as they let you leave over there.  :D

Hey, now there's a good idea. Using a taper arbor in the head stock. Kind of turns the lathe into a multi purpose tool.

Never ceases to amaze me... If only I had that kind of room. OFC, with 6 acres, i would have a garden steam train line too! What are you waiting for Bernd?

Ha!! I've been over there once... NYC last november.... Cool city  ;D

So do you want the address to send the ticket  :D


I will get back over there to that little country of yours! Just a matter of where all the funding is coming from!
I still haven't finished my house... had the damn thing 6 years and never lived in it!!!

Suppose that I should prioritise a bit more eh!?


I haven't made the arbour yet.... It is in the 'back of the mind' phase of design  ::)

I will also make a small guard for it as the spindle on my 9x20 has a whopping M40x4 thread on it.... that's a mangler if ever there was one!!!

Let's see ..... MONEY .... How's that.  ;D  Oh, and a lot of ambition.  :P

I have the plans for a 1.5" scale Shay and have thought about putting in a system.

But if you ever saw how far I need to go to finish the house before I can spend full time on the hobbies you'd know I might never get to the live steam.
And there's a thing called "wife" that says I need to finish the house before I can play. Damit. Just can't win.  :(

I guess I'll never run out of things to do. I've known some people that have no hobbies and all they do sit around waiting to meet the grim reaper. At least I'll go with to much to do.  ;D
