I have run it now for a while and it hasn't gone "POP" yet.
This isn't under heavy workload, just free-running and traversing etc. and a few light cuts.
I have to say the finish (compared to the mini-lathe) is fantastic (the 0.0018 feed rate might have something to do with it).
I have other problems (belt slipping) and I am not sure what I can do yet. But overall, while it is as yet only jury-rigged for testing I think it has great promise.

What projects do you have lined up?

Absolutely none I am afraid. It is probably best to imagine it as a pair of fancy new shoes or a really posh handbag and you will understand.

I got it because the Chinese Mini Lathe is a bit limited in its scope and I deserve it. Projects will appear eventually.

DanClarke · Jan 26, 2024

Morning All.

A lie-in today.

Off to meet a local fella to talk lathe stuff later.

Have a good day.

Mornin,
No Cafe breakfast this mornin, council phoned sayin they had a cancellation and can the plasterer come today.
Well he's here but only to fix the mess his apprentice made two weeks ago
Not doing the ceiling or the wall in the picture, says not authorised even though the surveyor yesterday promised it would be done.
Suns shinin though and it's mild

Have a good Friday all
