I just wanted to offer a word of caution to anyone using that lathe (esp if they are short). The positioning of the power switch is extremely dangerous! It's very likely to accidentally get your arm caught in that lathe while<br>
attempting to reach over the top of the spinning chuck to power it off! It's in fact so precarious hazardous that I will probably not use it until we manage to get the power switch repositioned.<br>
.02+beware!<br>

hi folks,<br>
<br>
looks like the spindle needs to be tightened a little bit but it's working! i brought in some tooling, enough to make cuts and learn. anyone interested in using it can easily learn the basics of lathe<br>
operations and how to grind lathe bits online before operating. this lathe is also capable of cutting threads - just swap out gears as indicated on the inside cover of the gearbox and use an appropriate<br>
60-degree bit. the lathe and all the tooling I brought in are a donation to the space but once there's a place for the tooling I'll grab the toolbox back.<br>
<br>

Awesome! I was playing with it the other day. This is a great addition to sudo and the perfect size lathe for our current space!<br>
