Pimped out mini lathe
« on: June 06, 2010, 06:47:06 PM »
Here is my Taig lathe with some mods I did on it, I built and attached X and Y dials, depth dial on the tail stock and a dial on the head stock for the 4 jaw chuck.

Wow. I´m often having serious trouble just fumbling with one clock in a somewhat bigger lathe (Myford S7).  :clap:

Hi Steve!

I'd recognize that diamond plate on the head and tail anywhere.
