So, I was given a lathe that had electrical problems.
I sorted those problems, and I am now looking for some simple projects so I can learn the machine. My first thought is to turn some clutch pulleys out of brass. Do you have other suggestions? Attached thumbnail(s) |

I found this while searching for 'Mas' engine lathe. (edit:05/22/16) Photobucket has taken down the pix of the accident, I suppose the horrible nature of accident investigation is too offensive. Civil War pix,or plane and train crashes. Boer War,WW1 and WW2,Korea and VietNam and so on. Used to be,the dead were front page news,all around the world. Surely,they were more offended than the viewers,decades or centuries later. They were professionally taken for reference in law,an inquiry for recommendations to regulation changes. The purpose,to avoid more accidents,like the carnage on the highways. Teaching more people about the results of ignored rules or seatbelts might have an effect on the number of casualties. / |

An example of not following rules of MC 101. http://www.silencertalk.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=41444 Veekry Thanks for posting this. Very graphic.... I also was given a small lathe, old Logan 10x24. and I have very little metal working experience. I have made a couple small parts and am very careful when using it. But these pictures will be in my mind anytime I use it from now on.... |
