Alex Zeller. Steve really doesn't keep up his site up to date. He will gladly answer any questions if you call him, his ph. # is on his web site. Steve is a one man business for his tools. He does...
Richard there is a slight angle forward. I think it's around 7 degrees but if you really want to know you can just call Steve Sinner & ask him, his ph.# is on his web site.
I've been using the rest by Advanced Lathe Tools LLC for over 10 years now. Over which time I've collected them in the following sizes 3"-6"-9"-12" and 14" for my Powermatic Lathe and 3"-6" for my...
I don't know if it's correct or not but I've been told there pitch pockets.
Well I don't turn bowls but I've turned many hundreds of hollow vessels starting with green wood roughing them out then air dying and returning them. The EMC will vary by region in my area I'll...
I have a Wagner pinless one, I can't remember the model # but I really like it.
I have a Robust & the Powermatic that is a Oneway clone. I prefer the Robust It just seems beefier to me. For my turnings I'm constantly putting on and taking off a variety of cone centers from...
I use a 20" center steady from Advanced Lathe Tools. It has 3 wheels the top one is offset for laser clearance. I've hollowed vessels weighing 400 plus lbs. with it with on problems at all. It does...
I do a lot of work with Steve Sinner in his Studio with him. We do collaborative vessels anywhere from about 3" to 30" deep for several galleries
. Geoff is correct that it would take the 1 1/8"...
I have a old Rockwell/Delta from the 1970's I bought it around 1995 and it was needing a little work. I can't remember for sure but I think I paid around $500 for it put about $150 into it. It's been...
Advanced lathe Tools LLC makes a excellent 3" too rest. I have 2 of them one for my midi Rikon & one for my Powermatic.
I rebuilt a old powermatic model 45 with the reeves drive. Like the pm model 90 it was great for spindles but not for bowls or vessels as it just wouldn't go slow enough. So after a few years I added...
I was fortunate enough to have been Steve Sinners assistant for a week long deep hollowing class there a few years back. I have to agree with Roger it's a first class facility all the way. I also...
I have one. I bought from Ken at the AAW symposium in Atlanta almost 2 yrs ago. I brought it home hooked it up to some air turned it on it seemed to run ok then I put it back in the box and haven't...
For a heavy duty rest check out the ones from Advanced Lathe Tools LLC. I've been using one for yrs and highly recommend them. There is a number of differences between there's and others on the...
Some how this doesn't seam to me like it should be a big problem. The only time I've used the spindle lock was to remove the chuck. Lock it remove chuck unlock it, move on. I've had my 3520 b for...
I use a 2" 2 prong from Best Wood Tools. I've used it to turn 500 lb plus logs works great.
I have 2 links as that is what came with it when I bought mine. That said I have only used both links on 2 vessels both of them were over 12" in diameter with large shoulders. I'm able to turn a lot...
Please remember there is no comparison between a cutting tool & scraping tool. The Rolly is a cutting tool not a scraping tool.
Only you can decide what is the right choice for you but if you plan...
I use the captured system from Advanced Lathe Tools LLC. with the 1 1/4" boring bar.
I use the Rolly to hollow vessels from the top to bottom not just the shoulders on vessels anywhere from about 4" to 32" deep.
No they were not available that way back then. However you can buy it that way now from Advanced Lathe Tools LLC.
I've been using the Rolly cutter on boring bars in a captured system from Advanced Lathe Tools LLC for around 10 years now. I've hollowd many hundreds of vessels this way works great.
I haven't used one but they look like they could be really useful.
