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 like to use what's called a "dial test indicator" for setting up stuff on a lathe.... different than a "dial indicator". The feeler nub has less range of motion but it springs back to position on its own.
About the issue with the lugs having multiple axis for the heads/threads, you can use a 4 jaw independent chuck, vs the universal 3 jaw. They take longer to set up but more accurate. The test indicator becomes very handy with an independent chuck.
