Hello, I have two AXA size toolposts that I am tired of looking at. Both are piston type, One is brand new still in grease paper and the other one has been mounted on a lathe and barely used. I would

A while back, okay almost 20 years ago, a friend worked at Jorgenson Steel in Denver. You know how that mill oil on steel is... He and I and a roommate started a floor cleaning business and did the fl

Zep "Cherry Bomb" is my current favorite. Use it like a waterless hand cleaner, and then rinse it off. If you wet your hands first, it doesn't stick well enough, and most of it just goes down the sink

Looking for options to add collets to my very old SB 15x8 lathe. I have seen the recent posts on using a backplate and ebay/amazon ER40 chuck. Wondering what was the original taper in the tube of my S

I dug up this old project up. I had to modify it to include the pictures. Originally they were on photo bucket. I thought it might be of interest. Hope it comes through. Jim B. Dr. James A Benjamin 16

A local feller has this for sale for 200. Says it opens 6" and weighs 70#. Anyone know what model it is and if it's a good deal?

I need to cut a 0.190" wide slot, 0.300" deep in a ~1.75" wide chunk of steel, and it's a part for my milling machine, so I can't do it on the mill. I don't think the tolerances are particularly tight

Hey Guys, Just transitioning to my new-to-me Phase 2 tool post on my SB9c. No way the t-nut that came with it will fit. I see three options: 1. Re-mill the t-nut that came with the post. My least pref

Hi There, For the last two weeks, I have been sending emails to Metal Lathe Accessories but I haven't receive any response. Are they no longer in business? Good Luck! -Blue Chips- Webb

No connection with myself. Got a 14.5" similar, otherwise would want it. On Ebay UK, price looks like a bargain. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/394459922709?hash=item5bd7a4c115:g:tbQAAOSw7a9j0rjB&amdata=e

All this discussion of metric threads has raised a question in my mind. Sorry for being simple, but the only metric threads I ever cut were small enough that they were done with a tap or a die, never

I purchased on ebay a 3D printed compound gear that is supposed to enable metric threading on my Heavy 10. The gear appears to be printed well, and is equipped with a bronze bushing center for reduced

So , I've been thinking of making a ER40 collet chuck as you folks know form the tread I started last week . I keep thinking the only part that I'm not 100 % sure I can pull off is the metric threads
