right, that is what I thought too. Now you just have the ship fix version with a 36” length instead of the 48”... but appears to be the same other then that.
Is it just me or has grizzly reduced the number of lathes that they offer online? I like to window shop every so often and feel like they were quite a few missing from last time.
It looks like...
Great information about thanks. I didn’t know that the G0800 was that heavy duty of a lathe too. I assumed that extra cost went somewhere!
I was going to PM you a question on your lathe to try and under the difference between the new and old version of the Revo 24, but the PM only works for paying members now apparently. From my...
I’ve only see the vb36 as a bowl lathe. Never considered it for hollowing. That is a mountain of a lathe
That’s about 4 hours away from me, a little far to travel with the hopes of it being in my price range. Why are you auctioning it instead of just selling it?
Where are you auctioning it off through? Online or in person?
In the never ending vortex of lathe upgrades, I am always looking at something bigger. When I upgraded to my 16" nova 7-8 years ago, quickly learned that a 16" swing isn't going to produce me a 16"...
I've turned 2x4 before and thought it sucked. Pen blanks are easy to come by, i have more then I'll ever use. Send me a message and I'll mail you a small flat rate box full of some to try out.
what process do you do for your dye? Do you apply it while they are still on the lathe? How do you apply it?
thanks.
Out of ash, maple, or oak, which would take the dye the best?
So a friend wants a peppermill with a red top and a black base. I typically just use natural woods but I don't think a bloodwood top and walnut bottom is going to fit the bill. I don't think paint...
what finish do you recommend then?
I have been working on my bowl turning a lot more lately and I have started to switch finishing from poly to more of a natural oil and wax finish. I was using just walnut oil and then trying the...
or take up the need for an (affordable) 16" sprial combo in the same configuration!
weird because it isn't in the most recent catalog I have. I couldn't find it on their site when I searched for it. Fingers crossed
I suppose I can always look at the Jer version, looks to be about 30" wide. Or if I have enough cash maybe look at the felder or minimax versions
still a lot more compact then 42"
Maybe they are working on a 16" version for under $3,000
My issue with that one is they call out the size as 59.5"x45"x42". 42"?! I need almost 4' from the wall to house that. The g0634xp was 67.5"x41.5"x24". Better in every dimension for my shop
I have been planning out my future shop basically every day I'm in my current shop. I had always planned to upgrade to a grizzly g0634xp because it is a 12" combo with sprial head and can go closer...
Also, could the same vacuum pump for turning be used to run a vacuum press? The function of "it provides vacuum" is the same, but is one more demanding then the other that would require different...
But then I just realized that if I use my compressor to vacuum chuck, then I won't be able to power sand at the same time.
I did find the spec on this specific motor, but not really sure what...
Here in lies more confusion for me.... where does a compressor come into play in this set up. I have a 30 gallon compressor in my shop, does that open up my options, or do I need a vacuum pump no...
