Had similar problem with my 3520 last year. I moved the grooved belt one groove over, so it wasn't rubbing against the pulley side. No more noise.

Mike, I have been using the Beall Buffing system for the past five years. Love it! I use Tripoli and White Diamond. Since I buff both before as well as after finishing, my first wheels wore down...

Patrick, if I have any endgrain tearout on the outside of the bowl, I take a sharp skew (or flat edge scraper) on a 45 degree angle and take 5 or 6 very light passes on the tearout area from the...

Don't forget to thank your wife!!!!!!!

I had a tick once that was noticeable at very slow speeds. If I recall correctly, I moved the belt over into the next groove and the noise stopped. Seems I had it too far to the left, and apparently...

Before I fut any finish on, I buff with tripoli and white diamond. That way I start my finishing with the very best surface possible. Then after the finish really cures (no odor detected) I use the...

I have parts for that 46-715 lathe. Sent you a PM.

I've always tapped the base to force CA down & away from tip, then squeezed the bottle to force any CA still in the tip upward, then wiped with a rag or paper towel. Cap back on.

Sam, Testor's has a CLEAR decal paper system which can be printed on in color using a computer inkjet printer. You might want to check that out via Google. You could use light color type on dark...

Johnny, I would suggest a dead center a/k/a/ cup center (like the live center on your tailstock, but it's narrower and doesn't have any bearings). Using this on your headstock allows you to set the...

The first suggestion I would make is to line up your turnings in the order of lowest price to highest price. That's at least a beginning.

Next decide upon the price market you think your bowls...

Jason, I just sent you a PM.

Here's another turner's approach: http://www.woodisfun.com/skeltonfix.html

I usually try to use the shop vac when I'm dressing the wheels to keep the glass (or sand) particles coming off the wheel out of the ambient air. Dangerous stuff!

The Jet & PM appear to be the identical (can't translate the metric threads to see if they're 1 1/4" x 8tpi). Your Jet seems to include the remote switch; not our PM. The price also seems higher...

I was dissatisfied with the performance of my Woodcraft generic sander and returned it to Woodcraft. Bought their Sorby sandmaster and have been very pleased with it for the past two years. Use it a...

I wholesale about 600 stoppers each year. My laminated color stoppers are definitely the most popular. (People ask how long it takes me to glue up the laminates.)

However I mostly cut my own...

I'd try alcohol...denatured, that is...or acetone (lacquer thinner) on a rag first; then 0000 steel wool, if needed.

I really like the symmetry! Looks like an elm butterfly.

The more we turn, the more we can visualize an optimum design and shape. Good vision! I can't think of a better use of that wood than a NE. Like the foot a lot. I might have made it a tad thinner...

Felicity turning and Felicity? How lucky can one be?
