I have started stripping and cleaning the lathe. The tailstock, compound, cross slide, feed rod and lead screw are now clean. The cross feed screw bearings have been replaced. The bed has been started on, but there's a whole lot of grot inside the bed casting!

Slightly longer video about making a thumbwheel to make my mill knee crank easier to take on and off. Also a lengthy side bar (in the middle) with a couple of measuring tricks for the lathe - covering digital caliper usage (thanks Myfordboy), and balanced cuts (thanks Carl White and Stefan Gottewinter).

The next piece of the bandsaw puzzle is milling the steel motor mount for the reclaimed 2hp mulcher motor. We modified this motor's shaft in a previous video, and made a pulley to go with it. Today we fabricate the motor mount, get it fitted to the frame, and do some test cuts.

Stickers from Nathan Mr Mechanical (thanks!). Cap screw set and grub screws for toolholders arrive in the workshop. I share plans to make the drill chuck easier to use on the milling machine. Also - the possibility of a fly cutter project coming up.

I have a fair few clamps, but not many machinist clamps. So - why not build some?
I'll be following some excellent plans I bought from Doug Gray. His online shop is here:

Enjoy!
