I've wondered about either making or buying a shroud for my G0766 ... does anyone know if there is any aftermarket shroud/protector available?

I have been using this one for the past six years on my HF DC
...

Am I missing something? I use the handwheel on my G0766 all the time ... why doesn't the Revo have one? ... or is it an option? I'm asking since in my new place I don't have a 220 V line and...

My thanks to everyone who added their thoughts to this issue. I actually DID keep my drill press and so will use that. I am assuming that I can use any bit, regardless of what it's made of since it...

Thanks guys! ... Any preferences/tips for widening it at home? My current (new) shop is very limited in tooling ... went from a hugely oversized 2-1/2 car extra deep garage to a tight 1 car standard...

Roger and Tim ... am I correct that you're both saying that using a 25mm post in a 1" drilled banjo won't affect the performance of a 25mm post tool rest? I am asking since I bought a few Robust...

Ron, I think that it looks great without the bark. A very nice piece of wood and well-turned!

I turned a thin walled Sycamore bowl from a green log that I reversed onto a bowl chuck. I left it in the chuck, tightening ever so slightly every day for a couple of weeks and ended up with a...

Chris ... where did you get the board? I'm in NJ as well and always looking for another source.

I built a extremely heavy duty 30' x 60' workbench using only culled wood from a local orange big-box. Tripled 2 x 6 legs, 2 x 6 top frame and supports, double 3/4' plywood top and shelf ... total...

Keith ... which mobility model works for a G0766? I am looking for one to fit mine.

+1 On the Harbor Freight (or equivalent) organizers!

Does anyone know how thick Doug Thompsons scrapers are? The same question for Crown Pro PM scrapers?

TIA

My Bench grinder is louder than mine!

I originally went with the Norton and the wheel balancing system when CBN first came out because I didn't want to pay the price. Once the prices dropped a bit I went to CBN and have never regretted...

That blue maple platter is amazing! ... tremendous chatoyance and depth

I have what may be a silly question. Does anyone have any experience with the Vicmarc direct-threaded chucks versus the Vicmarcs that use an insert? It SEEMS to me that the direct thread should be...

I have the Harrison Simple Hollowing System and like it quite a bit. I have used it with both their cutter and scrapers and find it easy to set up and use, especially if (like me) you don't hollow...

I use a small parts organizer with deep compartments similar to this one from Home Depot:

I have two that...

A 4 (+/-) inch faceplate and some 1-1/4 to 1-1/2 inch #10-12 hex-head screws would be helpful. I like the EWT aluminum ones for medium sized projects and steel or cast-iron for larger ones. Also, I...

+1 on Brians Rikon advice but I would go differently for gouges. While you're learning how to sharpen and experimenting with profiles, etc, I would start with either Benjamin Best from Penn State or...

I have two 100's and just ordered two 125's (to go with my recently delivered G0766, he he). I have had the 100's since they were first introduced and haven't had any of the flaking mentioned ......

I am soon to be in the market for a new, larger lathe. (Currently a 1221VS Jet) The ones on my "short" list are a G0766, DVR XP, 1644 Galaxi, Jet 1642. It seems to me that all the above have...

I have a 16" Worx electric that has been through tree wars with me. After about two years, while cutting a WAY oversized oak log it seized on me. I called Worx customer service and they replaced...

Hi all. I've noticed that recently my Jet 1221VS slows down during a fairly light load and takes longer than usual to come back up to speed. The problem has been worsening as time goes on. I have...
