Hi Rance, If you don't "need" the lathe right away - and wish to save a few $$ you might wish to take a chance and see if the price drops back to the $439. Also note special offers do come and go and

Hi Rance, Thanks for the update! As it turns out, I'm heading over to China in a week or so and will look around a bit - more stuff for the "junk box." Another member posted an offer for an 8-LED item

Thanks Ed, I'll try that when I order (2-3 weeks out). Rance wrote: over item # the catalog" it mentioned. website. were HSH

Hi Rance, Point well-taken. While the picture appears to show the data port door on the 47257-5VGA ($15.99) neither the offer nor the "manual" mention it - I agree with you, best to look elsewhere.

Yes, thanks both! I was thinking along the lines of using a round bar, a dial indicator and a calculator but I guess I might have been making things a bit more complicated than I really needed to.

Rance, Since the lathe is a catalog only item, you need to order it over the phone or on the web. If you go to the HF website and type in item # 44859-0HSH, the site will take you to the lathe for

DBN, One word of caution. If you plan on keeping it in your coat pocket, it may not last as long. I think the bouncing around loosens up the battery holder a bit so sometimes you have to tilt it a bit

DBN, I saw that one. Its a 47257-1VGA vs. 93940-1VGA. I saw the one you pointed out. I think I'll hold out for the one w/big digits and a computer interface as I may convert my lathe to cnc later on

Ed, Pardon me but what is 44859-OHSH? :) I'm assuming 44859 is their product #. Rance wrote: $will

Hi Mike: I think I mentioned this before but can't remember for sure. Check the bed gap before and after and adjust as needed to get an apples to apples comparison. The change in viscosity will change

Hi There A quick way around the brass tools is to use 1 holder and the same size tool bit. As a brass tool has no top rake you can set 1 tool holder to required height and just interchange the tool

I am new to using the lathe and just upgraded to a QCTP and find myself wanting a very large supply of tool holders for turning tools. I would like to know roughly how many tool holders you are using

I would suggest you take the gear cover off and throw it away. It has no function I can see except decoration. The sticker that tells you what gears to use for various threads is useful so take that

Try taking an old gun type soldering iron and use it as a demagnetizer. Slow circular motions while withdrawing slowly. Turn off only when a couple of feet away. Repeat as necessary until completely

44859-OHSH is listed for 499.99. Still not as good as the $439 but $will almost pay for the freight over the normal price. Ed

Now why didn't I spot that? Out of true too. And Roy reckons he can knock the rough edges off with a file! <markzemanek@...> wrote: wrote: suggest to the gibs lapping the

Hi Roy, I don't know about any problems using mag bases. I haven't heard of any. But no, the steel is not just stuck in the oil film. As per my post to Ian, I measured 250g to lift a 70g piece of
