| Largest spindle bore on mini lathe |

I currently use an imported taig lathe with large 1.6" bore, however, I'd like a larger lathe. The problem I've got is my workshop is in my attic, so I can't use a large machine. Can anyone tell me where I could find a mini lathe with a mt4 bore or similar or a way to increase a spindle to that capacity. Many thanks Richy. |

My BV20 is far too heavy for me to get in the Attic and the bore is only 20mm! We had a Myford ML7 at work and the bore on that was only 7/16". What are you planning to make? |

Taig with 1.6" bore ??????? Do you mean 1.6 mm :lol: MT4 is 1.23" at the large end so your Taig ? is far bigger |
