Puts the WOW in Wobbler :)

Thank you :) I do have a ways to go, experience wise... ;)

Hello all; Last time here was perhaps 2014 ish. Things happened, sold my tools. But now have replacements :) Never finished a PM 3A I started...lol. Got caught up in 22 rimfire builds which went well. But more interested in IC. Looking around for a pretty basic IC build. Hit an Miss are...

:D:D Not to mention how they somehow don't have the full amount asked would I take what they brought... Appreciate the motivation to keep it. who knows, if it sits unused but pristine for a few years..prices go up, maybe then I would not lose $ on it. Also, I am not self-convinced that...

It seems I have a Micro Mark 7x16 and a Enco 13x40 the Micro Mark never gets used anymore, and frankly there was only a few months span in between the purchases. I wonder if I should keep the Mini lathe ? project wise: so far all have not been model engine related, and all done on the...

lol. ya can never tell about these things. BTW, the op is an ex-pro motocrosser.

Howdy, Jason. Know who you are, seen ya in action :)

no chance of a panel re-design to proper/standard clearance betwen jacks and use a d-hole as well ?

the quotes do work wonders. but still, pretty funny, (to me) that "lactate"

Lucky. :) not me.

performed a search here, for loctite. "it" indicated I must have meant to search for.... Lactate. :o hmmm.. well ok , but not on this particular forum ;)

small and orange sparks.. ?

will make much more accurate and precise..... mistakes :)

;D ;D My birthday present to myself..! DRO's for the lathe and mill. yeehaw. Sino's via the ebay. wish I had the proper taps to get started today though!! ( plug + bottom tap). I thinking of using 12-24 rather than the 5mm bolts. funny how I just spent some $80 on taps and dies..and yea, dont...

"located" for pocket change, a nice HUNK of 5-1/2 round steel yesterday....about 4 long. and man, is it HEAVY. and no rust on it - even though it has been outside. I dont think its a stainless, hard to say. quite magnetic. maybe a good grade of a chrome-moly? would make nice heavy flywheels at...

lol, was hard to resist a set of virtually new starrets for abut $40 :) glad I got them.

What will be your uses for it ? (just curious). My wife has a mini-version so to speak, for gourd work

I was wondering about how the 3 and 5 sizes worked on "standard" diameter rods. Had not looked into though. just tons of things to learn :)

Its just another way to justify more tooling :) and in this case, I am going for some good taps and dies.

lol, the down side: having to spend $$ on taps and dies for 3-48, 5-40 and the like. (let me guess - the kit maker sells these ) the upside: can fix (maybe) or make (maybe) those holes and screws in my rifles. lol.
