Good evening all
I've just found your site and signed up. I'm a complete beginner when it comes to machining. I got myself a little lathe/mill combo on a whim about 2 years ago. It's a emcomat 7.
My tapered cap head bolts
Iv also got an old startrite drill press.
I have only used the lathe for turning tapers on stainless steel cap head bolts and making aluminium wheel spacers for a motor bike I have restored.
This is the bike.
So this is my arsenal
I really want to put the lathe/mill to good use and make a engine. Preferably a small 2 stroke.
Was hoping some of the more experienced machinists could point me been a complete novice in the right direction.
Hope the picture links work, And looking forward to reading your suggestions
Thanks
