Hi Wilfred, I agree with much of what you say but all of the 7x minis are pretty capable and portable but unless someone is extremely tight for space, short of cash or certain of their requirements

One thing no one has mentioned is that you can easily put a 1"piece in the jaws, you cannot slide a 1" piece through the spindle. Bob

The Real Bull 7x has a few more features than the SIEG ones. I have one and find the performance is about the same, but the SIEG lacks the way wipers and the more convenient (for modification) RH end

Hi John: I expect you know more about this stuff than I do.... I think you are well-describing a small, independent PV power system. I know some of the inverters have the features you are describing

Tom, The 7 x 10" is a very nice and capable lathe. This size is ideal for users with limited work space or who need to put the lathe away for storage after each use and set it back up next time for

Thanks for all the help. I didn't expect to see answers so quickly. You've convinced me to buy the longer model lathe. I think the shorter one will work fine for me now but in the future I'll want

Hello, do any of you have drawing of this part, with metric dimensions of it? If you can please send it to me via email. ATB

Some do. They have a wall of little drawers full of expensive little screws of all sorts. So does Ace Hardware, Tru-value, etc. You can buy a box of 100 for what you'll pay at Lowes from any

The 7x10 will easily handle any of the chores on your list. You will not be able to take off the full 1/8" in one pass, though. With skill and a sharp toolbit, you may do it in 2 passes, but 3 is more

Hi Tom, All the 7x lathes are great little machines and the x10 is often very cheap but you really need to ask if the bed length is going to be enough for your needs now and in the foreseeable future.

Thanks Jerry. I had always thought that fairly rigid frequency control was essential for computers to work without giving problems. Must have got this idea from the olden days of TV sets. Power here

I found them at Ace Hardware.... Bob

I got mine from Little Machine Shop. John

thanks for the offers and ideas fellas. First I'll try to file it down (or have it milled). If that fails, purchase is the next step. Too bad I'm not from US - shipping will be enormous :)

Does Lowes carry these button head screws for the cross slide? I'm soooo sick of bashing my knuckles on the dang cap head screws on there now... Whomeever thought of using the cap screws on there

The answer to 1, 2 and 3 is yes. If you're not familiar with threading, do some reading first. As to milling, it all depends what you want to do and how you're thinking on how to set it up. I haven't

Steven, I happen to have a tailstock body without the piston [forgot name]. I will sell for $15.00 plus shipping. Suggestion. You can use the lower part to repair the existing tailstock. The upper

So I've decided on the HF 7" x 10" lathe. For the longest time I was leaning toward the Tiag Lathe. But my Grandfather left me his tools and most of them will work better with the HF. The Taig uses

Stefan, Could it be that the tail stock base is poorly machined in the v way area? Mine was not machined with a good finish in the v way groove or on the flat way surface. I applied 120 grit wet-r-dry

Yours is probably fixable. With a little careful filing, you should be able to make the "V" fit against the "V" on the bed. Once they match, you might need to install a shim between the upper & lower
