Title: Mini Brass Lathe Solenoid powered
Post by: flyingtractors1 on October 26, 2012, 10:30:17 AM

In an earlier thread I had published pictures and a video of my treadle powered Miniature Brass Lathe. I have now figured out how to power it with a solenoid and moment arm arrangement.  It may be redundant complexity in motion, but who isn't?   :palm:   Ralph
