I bought the lathe, at last! ! !

Post by S. Vyzhanov »

I want to boast! I bought the lathe! Now I started a new pipe on the new equipment. It is necessary studies anew. I did all pipes only by means of a drill and the motor for a stone earlier.

How many pipes did you make before you bought the lathe? I'm just starting out and expect it will be a few years if I stick with it.

What's the lathe sitting on, a concrete pad or blocks?

Thanks for congratulations!
Without machine I made about 40 - 50 pipes. I want to use it for stalks and block drilling, with spindle replacement. I made such adaptation, I hope will help:
