They make lathes with reverse:confused:

I made my own too.
Had live center with removable center point, knocked out and turned a bolt down with taper (on my wood lathe) drilled hole through it. I made my shaft longer than PS's, so I can...

Thanks for the replys. I guess I should have taken a picture of the stack next to this one but it is not mesquite. Its only walnut ,maple, cherry ,and some splalted chinaberry is what we call it.Just...

Microwave -not near big enough
freezer- full of food and still would'nt be big enough ,the patio is not inclosed and we had some days down in the teens and they are still alive
insecticide ? ...

I have about half a rick of mesqiute (ends treated) and dry under patio. Need to know what to treat the worms with before they eat it all up and make sawdust out of it???? Round logs.

The output is on the lathe itself, I seen it with my own eyes.
Incase you want to know where I found it. A buddy just bought one and I was looking at it and our club President(AAW) pointed it out to...

I was thinking about the jet 16/42 for my next lathe and had made my mind up on the 1 and half horse until I found out the output is only 1 horse.
Can anyone tell me the output on the 2 horse jet...

Try some DNA before you apply the CA.
Thin CA is the worst for me turning white with or without accl.
So I use med. CA on most, sometimes thick.
DNA will remove some oils ,water and dust, and...

files will hurt you bad or even worse.

How about the wood spade blades they have a hole in them already. One of our AAW members makes his out of these. I am going to try it soon as someone sends me a ( round toit) Grizzly has the carbide...

I think a short tool rest would make yours or any large lathe smaller. I know when I did a pen demo at our club on club lathe I could have used a shorter tool rest to get between centers.

Not only is a 60 degree live center preferred it is a must to fit into the 60 degree concaved mandrel end. Other wise you get a wobble and mess up a mandrel and the stock live center that comes with...

I think you just answered your ? Stay away from big box stores when buying a saw.
Just a thought, I purchased a Makita with a 20 inch bar from an equip. rental store ,they were retiring it .They...

If your piece has any spalting or dark spots you can use charcoal rubbed in the crack then use thin CA over it. Sometimes shavings don't look that great to me for filling cracks. It looks like you...

To feed the vortex..
And to keep from wearing out the screws on the chucks by changing jaws all the time, and time itself time is money the less time you have in a piece the more you can make, if...

Please do not attempt to turn a pen without the 60 degree live center for your mandrel. Mandrels are made with a 60 degree concave and the live center on your lathe is not. When I started...

Being a Lefty, I want my next lathe to have a sliding headstock such as Jet 16-42, powermatic ,or even robust.
I can shoot better right handed than I can turn the inside of a bowl right handed....

If you are going to try production type pen turning ,you can buy wood pens already made, from China.I have two that were given to me at a T shirt shop. Otherwise make unique pens customers ,like to...

I would be careful of that word expert the ex is a hasbeen and the spert is a drip under pressure. I have a Grizzly 1220 vari speed and its not in the same league as the jet. My 2 cents.

STAVE; A narrow strip of wood forming part of the sides of a barrel,tub,etc.

Drill first then put drill bit back in hole attach bit in chuck bring up tail stock and turn.
On1/16/10 some one ask about the same thing. If you want to look up (stats) on my name to find it. I...
