Thank you for the answers guys!

I am trying to explore every options since i wanted to use pieces i already have.

Do you think it would be possible to mount this idler stand with wheel on the floor instead of on the wall? I would use a smaller contact wheel connected to the motor on a top position.

Good afternoon guys, I hope everybody is doing fine. I came across some pieces of an old belt sander from a closed business and the price was so nice i bought them even though i didn't knew if i could use them. I have been wanting to build some kind of large vertical belt sander but since i don't kn...

Thank you for your answers guys and girl :) When i was mixing the two compounds i immediately noticed one had a larger amount than the other and i should have stopped there. It was probably the case as i am using this epoxy brand / type for some years and i never had such a problem. Well, i think i ...

Good afternoon guys, I hope you are having a great weekend. Yesterday i made two acrylic rings and i glued them on the shank using the same epoxy glue i use all the time. Today when i went to see how it had set i noticed that although the rings are nicely fit ( i tried very hard to move the acrylic ...

Good evening guys! I am buying a smaller lathe for stem work in the next few days and i want to start making bamboo stems. I have tried to search the forum but i cannot find an answer to my main doubts, which are: - Is it possible to face / drill bamboo on a lathe? - If not, how do you achieve that ...

Good afternoon, The end of the year approaches and that means the time of investing in new workshop equipment is also approaching :-) I am going to buy a lathe just for stem work and i would love to have your opinions on which of these two small lathes is more suitable to do a better job: CHESTER CO...
