Yes, worked fine for me once I learned how to set it up.

Well, most bearing places will have a choice of bearings. Dont think it would be hard to add them onto what you have. george

I dont like this steady rest, I am sure I am doing something wrong, it always destroy my metal rod. Has someone have success with this solution? Finger Assembly, Ball Bearing 2889 -

I have been able to find a number of the Workshop Practice series as used books for quite reasonable prices at Alibris Books https://www.alibris.com/books <https://www.alibris.com/books> and

I've used the steady rest a few times to support larger diameter work when the tailstock center was in the way. I found that the stock brass pieces didn't retract far enough to suit work which would

I didn't move the brass/bronze (?) nut. I 'milled' the slide with my router and left the nut in the original spot. But a split nut sounds like an excellent idea for eliminating/reducing backlash.It

Living in Canada, even a mini-lathe was out of my budget range, since there are few low-priced options here. I was lucky to accidentally find a used 7x14 for sale nearby for $500CAD and I grabbed it.

I'll try again to post a pic of my slide mods: Sharp-eyed readers may spot the green masking tape at the left. That's covering an opening where the motor controller box would normally be mounted - I

Thanks, Mike. That's an excellent resource. Some of the 'Workshop Practice Series' books from the UK (Tubal Cain and other authors) are there too. John

Tony- I just joined this group, so you probably have decided what to do in the month since you posted that question. However, I thought I would add some thoughts as I just completed mods on the

What is the 0.01 mm spec mean? What is being measured? The cheapest grade of bearing, ABEC-1 is better than 0.01 runout. (it is 0.0075.) Typically machine tools will use ABEC-7 bearing with runout

I’d want confirmation that it does in fact have tapered roller bearings installed. It’s not that I don’t believe them, it’s that I don’t believe everything just because it says so on the

At that price ($550 US at todays exchange rate ) I am going to take a wild guess and say either a) they mistranslated the Chinese language description or b) they’re lying.

Anyone have experience of Vevor 7x14 lathe, they state that "Spindle is supported by precision tapered roller bearings, spindle accuracy within 0.01 mm.", so no need of spindle bearing mod?

Never broke a plastic change gear.? ? My current 7x does not have headstock gears, but never had a problem on a previous 7x with 2-speed headstock.? ? There are many issues with these lathes - the

Ok, when I talked gears and one breaking it was because I had the lead screw engaged. As my lathe has a brushless motor,? I do not have gears internally for speed changes, etc. I misunderstood the op

I like plastic change gears. They are more quiet and are the weak link in case of a crash. If adjusted correctly will last forever. I have had the same set for over eleven years.

Why bother changing out a gear that works? If it breaks then think about what to replace it with. But you know what? There is a Youtube video with this machinest who uses the name "tubalcain". He
