It looks like a drill chuck. Does that make sense?
Ive tried more than one mandrel now, and they all wobble.....slightly.
how do I know if it's the headstock bearing, or the chuck?
Couldnt this test also indicate the tail stock is out of round?
My 3 year old jet mini lathe seems like the headstock has gotten out of round. I don't think it's the chuck....but how can I tell which it is, for sure? I've tried a couple of pen mandrels in it,...
Is every board nailed to the wall, with closest lining? It would have to, with Ship Lap.
But how about T&G?
Thus my question, and confusion with so many of these replies. Almost all Closest lining is 1/4" thick, and it's all T and G.... So, what are they doing?
I want to cut some 1/4" thick red cedar for a closest lining. I plan on tongue and grooving it. Are there special router bits to tongue and groove lumber this thin?
Help us out, Hilel.
I did some Googling, and didn't find what you're suggesting.
I found this, however:

I have a minimax 24", and after a couple of hears of heavy resawing, my top tire will start to pop out of the groove.
I just buy a new tire from minimax, and I'm off and running. It's a real...
I found it a little awkward getting around the site.
And, I never did find pictures of individual boards with prices....
I've turned several 100# logs on this lathe with success. Always between centers, however, during roughing.
I do not have the bed extension.
I sold a 28" diameter Box Elder blank, last year, and I...
A one of a kind, bowl.
I've got a Grizzly G0698 lathe.
I also just got a fresh red oak tree, that's about 62" at the base.
I see this lathe allows me to slide the head, to the end of the bed, for outboard turning....
The question of profitability, seems to all depend on my labor rate.
and my helpers are dirt cheap in this economy.
are flooring mfg's making 5,6, and 7" wide planks?
So, I'm competing with folks that have to pay off a 6 figure machine, as well as pay for a place to house it, and upkeep it.
i have no problem competing against that.....
I love the look of eastern red cedar with a clear finish.
My dock boards need replacing. It's white cedar now. If I go back with ERC, what kinda finish can I put on to keep it looking great?
We will see....
and I think you mean "shaper" not molder. Not trying to be flippant.....just learning.
Using a dial gauge, I can easily raise The magic molder 1/1000" to remove exactly what I want. The finish is perfect.
I understand I cn profile and size the stock at the same time on a shaper,...
I do have a wide belt sander at my disposal.
sounds like it may be good practice to make a final pass thru it.....
And, at which step should I cut the back reliefs?
But, not for putting the boards on edge, to do the T&G ?
Im thinking the same thing, Greg.
make me a tall fence, and I'm set with my Grizzly power feeder.
i can use my dial gauge to make sure I raise the MM the same height each time.
Ive never seen a shaper run.
If I want to use one to cut the edge profiles for flooring, and I'm after a final 5" face, how does a shaper do this? After I rip one edge straight, do I then rip my...
All I can cut.
i have access to several sets of those plugs.
Thanks, Peter.
Ok, will do....
If I dead-stack outside on my driveway, off the ground, and cover all well with plastic, will I be ok if it rained one day?
