Hello every one. At last I have disided to let my old Unimat SL retired. I have brought myself a new lathe.


I realy like to looks of the lathe, he realy screams " let me work ".



Sorry to say, I brought this tathe at the wrong time. It was the very last one so I got a good price, but he had limit of equipment. I did not have a chanse to bay a 4-jaw chuck, so I can't begin to do some realy work yet.
However Ill got a borrchuck with morse cona for free, but with my luck it was not good for that lathe. The morse cona was not so good for my lathe, the cona was a bit to long.

However I have done a little thing..




This is a litle tool for indicate the distance in a hole where I can't use the micrometer.
Well that's for now.
Take care

Jonny:
You can get the spares etc from numerous other retailers worldwide. Over here to name a few Chester, Warco, Axminster, Machine Mart all the same machines.
Had one 5 years ago still got it with grease still on, two of everything, change wheels, QR tool posts, oil bottles, metric lead screw etc.

Jonny:
Is that some sort of depth stop?

Need to fix something up on my new lathe in time.

When I use my old Unimat, there was no chance to indicate how deep the hole was, so I made this one. It's still usefull.  :D
